That looks like the late 80's Criterium frame and group, minus the early Shimano Biopace chain rings. 7 speed in the rear cluster, right? No more than 8 I guess. I had 2 of these in my early road bike days, one with 105 (got hit by a car) and one with Campy Chorus/Record mix with a Vitus aluminum fork that tamed down the ride versus the original steel fork. I had later Cannondale road bikes, but these were my favorite. They rode smoother than the evil 3.0's.
