Golden Vitus 979 restored and turnt into commuter.
The framset is extremely rare as it has no internal routing for the rear brake cable and has fender eyelets in the fork.
Check out also the uncommon green fork decals for 979 dural.
I am guessing this is one of the first ever models of this bike.
Geometry also looks a little bit different form the next versions, the chain stay is longer, probably it got shortened to get a better stiffness?
Would appreciate any further info.
