I was wondering whether any steel frame experts out there could help me verify whether or not the frame in this advert is indeed a real Concorde or just a steel frame with Concorde stickers on it. I'm aware that there are plenty of counterfeit frames floating around. I used to own a beautiful but fake Pinarello frame that was very convincing indeed.
I noticed there are no Columbus stickers on the down tube of this frame or on the forks to indicate what the steel is made of and thought someone may be able to help me in identifying whether this is the real deal or not.

Thank you very much in advance.
