Hello guys, 8)

after several years I held this beautiful frame hanging in the children's room, I decided to mount it (otherwise the children would definitely dropped thus ruined it).
I bought this frame from a friend in Italy, is perfect, no cracks or dents,

in the 90's I went crazy watching TuttoMountainBike magazine in April 1994, where they had assembled
