Having got this old frame back on the road I am currently putting back the original 600 Group set etc.
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=328339
Having done some research on this I see this version was only in production for 88 and 89 then stopped altogether. There are some differences between the two years in terms of decals, gearing and other equipment, but the one thing I am puzzled by is the difference in BB arrangement detailed below. Is it possible that they were using up old stock at the end of the model run, if so why drop the small stay for the Cinclli BB in 89 only? there is not too many picture around of each type 2 or 3 for each, but enough to look consistent.
Any toughts?
Pre 88 BB shell was quite plain and had a small stay behind it.
