I suspect it's actually a 3-speed, there isn't a second gear cable on the non-drive side.When was the 5 speed hub launched as a product, I don't remember them in the 70s.

And considering what this went for earlier this evening the Massi looks good valuehttp://www.ebay.fr/itm/cadre-MOSER-colombus-slx-new-vintage-fourche-chrome-arriere-a-lItalenne-chrome-/332196072058?autorefresh=trueMust admit it does look rather nice
it seems a bit pricey , but it looks goodAnd this is still availablehttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Claud-Butler-Elite-58cm-Road-Bike-Reynolds-531-Retro-Shimano-105-7-Speed/282415163978?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D43782%26meid%3Db1e31dcadcb641fc859ae31c90720b65%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D262954669264
Nice, stick some downtube shifters and proper brake levers on it and it'd be nicer though.And this is still availablehttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Claud-Butler-Elite-58cm-Road-Bike-Reynolds-531-Retro-Shimano-105-7-Speed/282415163978?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D43782%26meid%3Db1e31dcadcb641fc859ae31c90720b65%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D262954669264
Yes l had a reply today and it is positive ! They are asking for my address to give me a quote and also enquiring about what type of bikes interest me most, which l think is an interesting response .it seems a bit pricey , but it looks good
Have you heard back re the Massi ?
