Hey. I could use some help identifying this frame. Any help would be appreciated. So, distinguishing characteristics:

Steel – butted Ritchey Logic (Tange Prestige) tubing
Either fillet-brazed or TIG-welded then filed very smooth
Ritchey Type 74 drop outs
Ritchey Logic Tubing and BB Shell
The Ritchey BB Shell is dated Feb1993 (T9302)
Two Serial Numbers 150 and 0411
older Cinelli-style bridge
extended seattube
recessed rear brake cable routing in and out on top of the toptube
two holes for a badge on the headtube (right higher than left when facing it)
very sleek 1″ aero fork
27.0mm seatpost diameter
English BB
No visible Serial Number
700c/700c
frame and fork weigh about 2.7kg (55cm racing geometry)

I think that it might be a Brodie or a Rocky Mountain. Unlikely that it is a Ritchey, as he almost always integrated the clamp into the seat stays. See pics. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I know what you mean – looks brutal.  It’s powdercoat, so it’ll just burn right off.  I restore bikes as a hobby, so repainting it and getting original decals on will be fun for me.  I appreciate the empathy tho’.

Obviously the “no visible

Obviously the “no visible serial number” description has changed, now that I’ve cleared off the BB shell.
