???What Make is this, Anyone hazard a guess???

Had this Bike for a while now, great fast ride for an old giffer. Was told it was a 1970's Aluminium framed racer which I can't dispute. It is all aluminium and very light, been outfitted with more modern components shimano 105 and campagnolo gear and looks really good once cleaned and polished.
So any Idea chaps. Was thinking off selling it so it would be nice to know for the Add.
Cheers

As for type, are you sure it's aluminium? Steel seems more likely
Cannondale kicked off mid-70s but they'd be obvious as fat tubes 'n' all
There was a batch of Kettlers imported in the 80s, not sure about their build method but was skinny tubed
As a PS, my local bike fiddler Spirit bikes have an old Vitus ally bike hanging up in their workshop - red, no less. It's clucking gorgeous.
It's just a hill. Get over it.
You can check by looking on the inner face of the dropouts - if there are initials engraved there, it probably is. They used to do that - whoever was the welder who made each frame would put their initials there.
Early Giant/etc - did these come with D/T shifters?

Try Giant next!
