Cucchietti (Olmo)

The march of acquiring mystery frames continues. All details bear out that the frame and fork were produced by Olmo, as the lugs, frame details, fork crown, etc, are all identical to an early 80's Professional - but notably missing the Olmo engravings other than the famous star on the fork tanges. Gian Paolo Cucchietti was a piedmontese ex-pro who started his own company and apparently contracted out the building of the frames to other workshops.

Frame:
Columbus SP / 59cm

Fork/Headset:
Columbus SLX fork blades + vintage Cinelli crown / Campagnolo Chorus

Handlebars/Stem:
Kelly cro-mo (110mm)
