I have the exact bike with same Campy components. Only difference is Cinelli stem and bars. The Columbus Cromo is a very lively ride and added bonus will handle heavy riders I am told. The complete frame is chrome plated for added corrosion protection.
The brake calipers are gorgeous - they win the beauty contest of all calipers in my view.

Austrian's Austro-Daimler sold the Puch brand name and assets in 1987 to Piaggio & C. S.p.A. of Italy (of Vespa fame) and maker of Bianchi. This acquisition transferred production of Puch-branded bicycles out of Austria so that the Bianchi-made frames bear the decal "Made In Italy".
