THe decal at the bottom doesnt seem to be gilco tubing, but aelle shaped gilco tubing, doesnt matter I think. I do not know the builder at all but looks super nice.

If you like it, buy it I think.

Any one have any idea what sort of openings are under the rear brake cable, top tub covers?

I have viewed frames where openings, just un-reinforced holes have lead to top tube fractures, similar to problems with some of the 80's Miyata's.

Anyone worked with this shop previously "Velossimo"? Lots of current listings on Ebay.

I missed the auction ending and it was relisted for less!

I have requested pictures of the BB, top tube with cable grommets/covers removed and the seat tube BB junction where the current tube sticker resides, we will try and find all the secrets.
