As the story goes, she was living in Philadelphia in the late 60's/early
70's and was dating the owner of a local bike shop. Supposedly he was
one of the top sellers of something at the time and that manufacturer
sent him this bike.

It wasn't uncommon, IIRC, that smaller European manufacturers would
sell in the USA under an importer's "house" label. I can't find any
reference to DiCampli but obviously it exists, there's an interesting
mix of components on that bike.

The Stronglight crankset is pretty high-end, the derailleurs are
looking like mid-range Campy out of the late Sixties, and Universal
center-pulls were used nearly everywhere.

Tubular racing tires of course, headset might be a Stronglight,
stem obviously a 3ttt, bars probably Cinelli. No idea on the
rims or hubs, hubs MIGHT be Normandy's or Campy, can't tell.

Very nice condition if the frame is straight, well worth the work
of cleanup and perhaps restoration, IMHO. The spokes are crap
and I can't tell which rims they are.

Overall it looks like a bike that might be equivalent in price to
a $1200 road bike today, at the time it was probably considered
the equivalent of a PX-10 and priced accordingly, say $400 in 1970
dollars.

JMHO.
