I'm pretty sure the double sided front brake was only 1972, but considering the bad reviews that drum brake got and their suitability for vintage racing, it might well have been replaced with the later twin discs.
I owned a '73K model - frame # 34311. It had factory dual front discs. At least in the US market, the front drum / "lead trade shoe" brakes were '72 only.

With discs brakes, not sure it's a 1973 model ;-)
