Chevron decals, Vitus 788 tubing, indexed Shimano Parts

Can't really tell if the rear is an Atelier dropout but the front has eyelets so it can't be. Head lugs look very well finished for this price level but maybe not the same as a TDF or SuperCorsa.

No way this was a stock build unless some pre 1984 frames sat in a warehouse until maybe 1987 or so? I'm thinking that the sidepulls are the only original equipment left here?

Lots of changes. Same tubing as my 84 Sprint. Not the lightest but by far its my go to bike when I'm notnsure what I want to ride on a given day

Well worth the $240 asking price.
