It's an oddball bike. Called a Gardin, and as far as I can tell it was made in Canada.
It has a Columbus tubeset, but it's the inexpensive Matrix line. Nicely lugged frame, chrome lugged fork; cast (or forged?) dropouts.
It has (had) the oddest mix of components I've ever seen; Those Campy derailleurs are the high point; it has indexed downtube shifters called 'Exploit' (!?) from an Italian company called Gipiemme; A crank from a company called Azzurro with an odd 110 ring bolt spacing; Azzurro hubs (6 speed freewheel rear); Mavic MA40 rims, Modolo 'flash' brakes (sidepull, but single pivot)
The neighbor got it at a yard sale years ago and never rode it, it's pretty big, I think it's a 61; all the bearings needed repacked, cuz the grease was like peanut butter, but it actually rides pretty nice now!
For fun I replaced the crank with a Ritchey Logic triple (I'm only using 2 rings), bolted on a set of practically new Shimano 105 brakes; stuck on some flat bars and blue hutchinson tires; suntour pedals with no cages, so I can ride in any shoes. Doubt I'll put much more than 100 miles a summer on this, but I thought it might be fun to have a beater bike for quick trips.
