On a PX10, my preference is clinchers, so for rims, I'd go with any decent, polished, vintage looking, narrow, eyeletted rim, sich as Mavic Moodule E's, Araya Red labels, Wolber Gentlemans, Super Champs or even the new Sun M13-II's.

Stem - French Pivo or Philippe - (or an AVA death stem if you're feeling lucky.)

Saddle - Preferably a black Brooks Pro. A B17, Ideale 80 or even the Agda would be OK second choices.

Seat Post - Preferably a Simplex. (Expensive). Alternatively a good (but not period-correct) micro-adjust.

Hubs - High Flange Normandy Luxe Competitions , or Campy record, or any smooth running FW hubs you can lay your hands on. (I have Maillards on mine).

Crank - Stronglight 93 or 49-D

Derailleurs - Simplex - Criterium if in good shape but preferably SLX 410's or Super LJ.
I'd go with a Suntour up front.

Brakes - Mafac Racers or Competition

Black tressostar bar tape.
