I dont know much about this frame other than its a custom built Aende. I would imagine its from the late 70s/early 80s, Im not sure if the paint is original either. Its an amazing bike to ride, very responsive and absolutely no toe overlap considering how tight the clearances are.

That time frame is probably right,most likely one of the many "shed" builders around Parma Italy. Many did third party builds for other builders or local shops.Many did stellar work.This looks to be one of the better ones. Enjoy

My description of the bike is probably a bit misleading, I know a fair amount about the builder I just don't know anything about the frame in particular. I can see why you might think its an Italian "shed" build but despite the Italian sounding name Aende was in fact a British builder.
