Hi
I am currently restoring a Colnago international circa 86 when I removed the old paint I found a faint stamp on the down tubes near shifters a stamp saying reynolds.
The cycle seems genuine with all the colnago engraving but I thought it was columbus tubing
they used
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

Colnago did use Reynolds tubing during that period. Most probably 753 so not too shabby.
I'm no expert but @Specialeyes knows more so maybe he give you some further information.
Some pics would be good when you can post them.

BTW hello and welcome to the forum.

Hmm, that's a bit odd - is the faint mark you can see actually embossed into the metal or could it be the ghosting of the adhesive from a dodgy aftermarket decal? Colnago were Columbus almost exclusively.
