Got this Benotto modelo 3000 from my personal collection for sale.

The decal under the TT refers to the World Championships held in San Cristobal in 1977. So the bike is post-1977. My best guess would be somewhere 1978-1982.

Very nice, top of the line frameset in used condition.

Great crit geometry, will make a very fast machine.

I am not convinced that this bike is post 1978. The decal could have been added later. The decals on the frame tell me it could easily be a 73-1976 edition. Also, take a look at the brazed on cable guides typical of that era.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
