@bellabici I believe it's from the end of 90ies. DOn't forget, that before '95, campag had no decals on their components. And the Mirage only got dual pivot calipers around 1997-1998 If I recall correctly!
So, I'd assume it's from cca. 1998, note also the welded, rather than lugged frame construction.
My lugged coral rides like a charm, and the 8speed campy components are built to last for the end of days and beyond.
The brakes are from the same design breed as prae-szkeleton higher-end brakes, with a very minor weight penalty. For power, they do not lack the performance. For modulation: there are better out there :)
BUt the bike is a beaut, and for this price, it'd be a no-brainer, if I'd be shoooorter. :)
