Hey all,
I've found two road bikes that I am considering buying to replace my low-end + rusty Columbia.
One is an Italvega Gran Rally w/ Campy parts:

The other is a Raleigh Grand Prix w/ 3 piece crank set, Weinman brakes and Mailard wheels:

I do plan to remove the shifters and gears to convert to a single speed. With either of these bikes, would simply buying a new hub do the trick?
