The Dura-Ace 7703 mechs and crank were installed and everything went well. More fine tuning of the cockpit has been happening, pedals were temporally installed so I could spin a bit and I believe I have a good match with the Serrota at this point.

I like the bend on these bars. Some time ago I got a bicycle equipped with Kusuki Medallion handlebar with a similar bend and I was initially sceptical (I'm used to Cinelli Campione del Mondo). Right now I find it way more comfortable than CdM.
