Back off on drinking the Italian Kool Aid...
My Garlatti was Campagnolo equipped when it was received... but I yanked all those crappy parts off and tossed them.
Could not appreciate the Valentino parts nearly as much as the Stronglight, Lyotard, Suntour, Arvon, Araya, Simplex, and Tange parts I used to build it back up.
The only original parts are the frame, fork, stem, bars, and Universal brakes.
