Can't wait to see more progress. Keep up the great work.

Got a set of these graphite tuff`s dated 1984..
But  ::)  the Top riders had the silver graphite hubs not the gold..
I am in two minds what to do as it would be sacrilege personally to remove the gold.. "nono"

Many thanks for your nice replies and help guys... :daumenhoch:
Going to leave the Campagnolo hubs as it is...
Just cannot do it and the missus who never gets involved with my kids bikes she calls it  ::) said looks better looking in gold..
And as Banachek said.. going with the graphites on this build as it fully deserve the wow factor with its history and could agree more with what radovr quoted and going big time on this iconic sport.. fistblump

Ady:
Little update..
Stripped and polished all the little bits and re-assembled greased as to when the frame lands..
Managed to get a set of correct dated dia comp cables which landed last week..
Cheers guys.. fistblump


Does anyone know what the date is of this seat ??

 

Ady:
Bit gutted today..
Fitting the flywheel too the hub and found a bit of play on the rivets  "help"
I don`t know if anyone would know who could repair this problem..
I bought these ages ago for this build as well..(bloody ebay)
I have got a spare rear which I bought earlier this year in the hope a front graphite might pop up so will swap for now and luckily its dated the same..
Well the tyres landed from Aus with no fees.. ;)

and the faulty hub..

Taipan:
Ady,someone on here had a tool for re-riveting the alloy hubs so they looked like they did bitd cant remember who it was but possibly Sawzal or maybe clint old school I'm sure someone will know tho :daumenhoch:
