So to clarify -
mid to late 80's brake cable in the top tube
mid to late 80's gear cables route through the BB
Therefore my Prestige should date mid to late 80's.
I thought the cutout 'R' in the BB was a newer feature - obviously i am mistaken and it would date early 80's.
This is possibly a step forward. I have some brochure details but i cannot look at them on this PC but it gives the groupsets available on the road bike - one Campag and one Shimano. I think the Campag group was the Chorus RS group which a helpful RBer (thanks Paul) dated to 1992 and the Shimano was DA with Sti levers - i cannot access the doc to check exactly which one.
I am pushing my Prestige into the 90's but perhaps it was raced in the late 80's prior to being released to the public - this is where is has gotten complicated without some pics of the bike with a race team.
Any help would be appreciated - as always.
