I don’t know is the frame set was a late build, or the brifters were an upgrade, While I prefer using the brifters, I’d like the OEM parts to keep it accurate even if I don't currently use them. I realize that this group not as popular as Dura Ace or Campagnolo, but it’s the way it came and it’s a regular rider.

For trades I have a small collection of vintage parts and access to more. Just let me know what you're looking forThanks & regards,

Van
