Thats correct, Doc. It's all I had available and in keeping near period correct. Yet even with the set-up and greatly exceeding chain wrap (slight risk if inadvertently shift big-big) it was still a challenge. We sure had some grimacing fun and looking forward to meeting up again.

Fairly quick and an easy solution, had to pull the Campy axle and swapped to a longer one from a Gipiemme hub plus add a spacer. Also removed the dropout adjuster screws that allowed clearance for the big cog and pulley. Its now back to the original configuration.

--- Now that I think of it, might use this same 6 speed to better match a mid-80's build w/ Triomphe stuff from Robbie. Should have no worries in chain wrap. It's kind of a funky project with an '84 Olympic and Coor's classic, Grewal's popularized ARCO paint theme.
