So Close

Thanks to [MENTION=86268]retyred[/MENTION] the Allegro now has a real Allegro Seat binder bolt and nut. Retyred got this from Ted Ernst, so some fine provenance in this one.




I stole the remaining two brake pad holders from my Carlton Project so that I could complete at least one of these. I have about 80 miles on the Allegro now. I still need a pair of Weinmann hoods and a pair of open-C skewers. Also [MENTION=73614]rhm[/MENTION] is recovering the saddle for me but it is currently fitted with a dilapidated spare saddle which I will ride while I wait. I am not at all impressed with the Campagnolo bar end shifters. Since I enjoy riding this bike and I enjoy some measure of predictability in my shifting they may very well be on their way out.
