2. Has 1 1/8 steerer, any chance I can fit an old cinelli (quill - 1R) stem or would it be much less hassle just to get an A head?

Thanks.

I find a 107mm Miche BB works well with a campy road crank and the chainring on the outside. It has adjustable cups, so you can adjust chainline a mm or so either way.
