RE: Torpedo Level

You might want to check your saddle and your bike fit. That is one large frame that appears to be set up for a rider that much too short for it. Also, you might want to put your expensive level on your saddle as it appears the nose tipped way down in front; potentially impacting your long term comfort and negatively impacting your power transfer and efficiency. I'm sure it probably works for you but it is certainly an very unorthodox set up.

BTW, what grouppo are you sporting. Simplex, Suqino, Hurett or maybe even early Shimano? I tried to cut and paste your picture to have a better look but due to the low rez I was unable to do so. Anyway, my guess is that it is maybe a 5 or 7 speed drive train. Probably early 80's touring bike. Maybe one of their Grand Touring models. Too me, that is a big, meh? But then again it is not the bike that makes the man but rather the man that makes the bike.

And, no, your bike is really not that old compared to me, if I nailed the vintage correctly. I think you would have to reach back into the 50's for that.
