[MENTION=57649]iab[/MENTION] which build do you regret the new chrome and paint? All the builds I’ve seen you do were amazing!

Im pretty sure I’ll build it out with a 1970’s campy based build from my parts bin and no cosmetic changes (except polishing the chrome) to help figure out what I want to do.
