Here we have a Moser. complete LX. made in italy. 53 cm. somebody knows when it was build?

I'm guessing, non low-profile cantilevers, biopace and U-brake, 1990 ish.

I would go even earlier than that. By 1990 Biopace was pretty dead, and U-brakes were a mid-'80s item.

Moser retired after the 1985 season (I was at his last Giro). I would bet that he moved on to the next phase, cashing in, quickly.

Here's Francesco winning his last stage, the 1985 Giro prologue in Verona.

mixture of parts, but understay U-brakes were in vogue around '87-'88. 89 and speccy went back to cantis, so around this period at the latest would have thought.
