The Mavic SSC derailleurs shift better than Campy SR from the same era.
I wanted to buy a pair from France, as they popped up in their classifieds in the same time with a lo pro Vitus Carbone (for which these were original) frame for peanuts (Mavic FD+RD= EUR80, frame EUR90) but I guess others thought the same as I as they were gone together in a split second. They are really nice but usually at horrible price. Even the Mavic Zap costs the half when one pops up here in Germany.
Anyway that is a nice color. Where did you get the decals, if I might ask? These older plain ones are seemingly impossible to find at every remaker. Most only make the pixel stuff, and also those who do older, are limited to the "Adidas" but nothing earlier. I've found 1 ebay seller, but they have surely never seen an original sticker.
