  1. Hello, I found a copy of this bike and classical style with the green “LEGNANO” has a different handlebars, very touristy. I’m overhauling all to mount a handlebar “condorino” and a San Marco Rolls saddle, I will send you pictures as soon as ready.

  2. Hi, what an awesome website, thanks!

    I just started to restore what I believe is this model however with a different spec.

    It’s a 4-speed with Allvit derailleur, Legnano cranks and a chrome rather than frame colour chainguard. No idea how to identify the rest. some pics here in it’s sorry state:

    Any idea where I can find the serial number? I’ve searched all over the vertical under the seat but can’t see anything.
