Thanks for this. Lots more to learn re these frames. I think the frame has already been painted. Pearl white i'd say but aside from a small chip on top of the seat-tube, it looks great. Cheers.
Hi Jim
Thanks so much for your reply. Looks like you are spot on here. That seat stay shape and pantographing is exactly the same on my frame - as is the brake mount / bridge. I just assumed it would be a Gianni Motta bike - I've not come across Roberto Motta in any searches. More research...
Hi
New to the vintage frame game so go easy on me…
Picked up this Gianni Motta frame from a friend who bought as a project but didn’t get round to building it and wanted to get rid.
Looks great with some lovely details.
Guessing it’s genuine!
Anyone help me with what year and model it’s...
