fine job of colour matching and very fine work!

i wish Bulgaria was no so far from California; otherwise i have a few i could send over for paintwork.

the first photo you posted in message nr. 10 shows the levers i was thinking of.





Balilla products were manufactured by Giovanni Galli S.p.A. the company later went on to launch the Galli road ensemble. afaik the only Balilla products beyond brakes were toeclips and straps.
