 :LolLolLolLol:

If the "all tubes" decal is OG then it's probably a supergoose - could be a team but there would be some remnants of red or blue candy knocking around  ;)

What's the serial number ? Is there a flat on the rear chain stay ? How many holes in the brake bridge ?

F = June
1 = 81

They stopped putting the "T" stamp in the serial on the teams/supers mid 81 so you have to check for the flat on the rear stay and/or the 3 holes in the brake bridge to confirm it's a super/team frame but if like you say the "all tubes" decal is OG then it's a good bet that it is.

Make sure you get the brake bridge and the bottom of the rear stay where it meets the dropout on the drive side  :daumenhoch:
