Late 1970's Chesini Criterium Pista

Found this one from a collector in Ebay, while I was looking for European Pista Frames around my size, The frame is made of a Chesini House Version of Columbus SL/SLX, the frame alone weighs 1.89kg, making it insanely light for steel tubing. The Build weights around 7.6kg total Built it with different ideas, majorly trying to respect the era, but with some modern takes as well, wheels and hubs, as well as bottom bracket are modern, as the other components are more fitting.
