Help me out with some ID

Hey team,

Much to my wife's chagrin I have added another bike to the stable. I am hoping someone may be able to help identify the frame. It is been repainted a masculine shade of pink with chrome forks and stays.

Not sure if this link to images will work:

Other details:

Serial number on seat tube - EC 0178
Arabesque 600 rear derailleur
Modolo corsa brakes
Ofmega crankset
Cinelli stem and bars
Rigida rims
It weighs about 10.3kg as is

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I'll have a guess. It looks to me like a Europa. The frame looks like those made by an Italian mob Technocrat who made frames for many brands and the tubing is generally Oria. Not much talked about but pretty good. The odd component mix seems similar to what Europa were putting out on their bikes in the late 80's maybe early 90's?
Nice bike anyhow...

Thanks Richard. I have looked into it and it seems to be Europa is the leading candidate. You are right about the mix and match componentry- modolo, ofmega, cinelli - they seemed to throw everything on them.
