| Dec 1, 2015 at 18:25 | comment | added | Stephen Touset | Quoting the OP, "[I am] wondering what to do with it and whether it was a good investment due to the unknown frame". My point stands. | |
| Dec 1, 2015 at 14:04 | comment | added | jqning | @StephenTouset the only measure? You're making this up, right? Plus, it's totally irrelevant as OP said nothing about value or investment. | |
| Nov 2, 2015 at 17:11 | comment | added | BEVR1337 | Looks like a beautiful bike! I love c&v and this definitely is an eye catcher. What is the component group? That can help narrow down years. Dia Compe engraved the manufacture date into the back of their brakes for example. | |
| May 6, 2015 at 19:33 | comment | added | ad.03 | Would've have liked to know the manufacture, but you are right. It has been a lot of fun having the bike though. | |
| May 5, 2015 at 20:31 | comment | added | Stephen Touset | The only measure of a bike being a good investment is if the happiness it brings you to ride it was worth the cost. If you need to know the original manufacturer in order to decide whether or not you're satisfied with the purchase (and you're not a collector or something), you're doing it wrong. Stop worrying about who built your bike and go have fun riding it. | |
| May 5, 2015 at 5:54 | comment | added | ad.03 | I bought the bike quite recently not knowing a lot about road bikes. Consequently done quite a bit of research since then and wondering what to do with it and whether it was a good investment due to the unknown frame. | |

| May 4, 2015 at 21:31 | comment | added | ad.03 | There is a serial number on the head tube, 9B04272. I am not a bike expert so it doesn't tell me much. Any ideas? | |
