Gear inches are about 60, 69 and 80. Zeus Criterium cranks and Campy brakes are original. Diacompe aero brake levers date from the mid 80's. Most recent upgrades were the Nitto Noodle bar and Technomic Deluxe stem.
Very cool. I have a Sturmey Archer FM hub on one of my bikes, which I like a great deal, and have an AM that I'm going to build into a rim one of these days. Good to see that spoking pattern, too, though I've managed to find 27" and 700c 40-hole rims. How do you like the setup with the trigger on the downtube like that?
