A well kept, nearly spotless 1985 AB-Frame, serial #3296775, with a mix of Campagnolo Corsa Record and the slightly
lesser group Croce d'Aune.
Frame measures 54cm by 54cm center to center.

Nice, simple one tone paint job. Subltly different decals, still with roots in the classic set from the seventies. Fork now has World stripes on them too.

Investment cast lugs are now starting to dominate. Gone are the Prugnat and Bocama long points of the classic era, but we still don't see all the garish embellishments of the latter stages of lugged steel. Read Micro Fusione.

Chrome is also a seldom seen garniture at this point. But that was never common on AB models, after all.

This is a beautiful bicycle.
