What is the geometry of 80's-era Moser bikes?

[[email protected]]

I suppose they had a range of models but I'm looking at pics of a
pretty nice one and wonder what its angles/geometry might be. Road?
Crit? Supersteep? There doesn't seem to be much online info. Thanks, JP

pretty generic..I sold Mosers when they were something other than
cookie cutter carbon or aluminum...58cm had a 57.5 top tube and a 73
degree seattube..pretty in the center of the bell curve.

I had a 57cm AX leader model 96 (the last one with Oria Cromovan
tubing). The bottombracket hight was on 26.1mm, the chainstays was
390mm and the wheelaxis was only 974mm - not exactly gerneric
geometry, but the nicest bike i've ever owned in terms of finish and
the second nicest in terms of ride characteristics.

Didn't Moser win the World Cyclocross Championship on a street legal Gios
Torino in 1978 or '79?

We sold them during that period and had a great poster showing a famous
rider playing in the dirt of a road Gios.
