Thanks Jim!!

That's the bike I should have brought in 1982. Buying a smaller frame was seen as "stiffer" back then, so I bought the 52 cm size instead of a larger one. I upgraded the derailleurs to Superbe, and swapped out the tubular wheels for Mavic G40s, but left the rest stock. Rode all over the place with it, but 38 years later it seems and is too small. My Newest will probably be retired as a piece of industrial wall art after a final detailing.
