Gios Torino frame — gravel, single‑speed… or just garbage? 🚲

Hey folks, I’ve got my eye on a vintage Gios Torino frame and I’m wondering if it’s a good candidate for a new life.
I’m torn between building it up as a gravel grinder, a tough everyday commuter, or even a single‑speed runabout.

For those who know these frames:
• Can they handle wider tires and mixed‑surface riding?
• How do they do for daily miles?
• Any pitfalls with converting one to single speed?

Or… is this frame actually shit and I should save myself the trouble? 😅
