Absolutely and 100% agree. Those parts are overkill and giveaways with that frame...from either group. I personally prefer either keeping something stock or upgrading it substantially. I don't think the jump from superbe to superbe pro is worth the time and energy, or the usage of more valuable parts. If I were changing out the group entirely, it would be to upgrade it to modern Campy. Otherwise, leave the top line stuff already there and keep it original.

That Superbe Pro group can either find its way onto another of your bikes down the road or get sold for a lot more overall than it would have gotten dressing that Lejeun.
