Before being merged and evoking Hippy's wrath, I'm starting a new thread as VanUden's got hijacked somewhat. Basically, have bought 2 Concorde's over the last year. Both Astore's, but very different. 1st is in PDM colours, with Campag Triomphe groupset (reckon it must be 87 build). 2nd is a USA special with Shimano tricolour, but I think this may have been purchased as a frameset and built up. Bearing in mind both are Astore's, the differences are tubeset (both Columbus, but different tubing), slotted BB's different and Concorde detailing on the seat stays and brake bridge of the USA one, but not the PDM. Really intrigued by these as heard they could be/were Gloria, Ciocc etc framsets. Would love to know more...
