OK, here's my Sporty Olmo.
These picture are the day I brought it home.
It had some hack-job cranks & bits ON it, but the seller had all the original pieces.
Ambrosio stem & bars (very narrow)
Balilla brakes and Magistroni cranks(46-50)
Campy bits are the seat pin, Gran Sport deraileurs & the Record HF hubs.
Laced to sew-up rims with new tires!!!
Tires that coast UP-hill.
So far I've only done one 25 mile ride on it, but what a breeze!

Riding along with the greatest of ease, I can't help but want to say ciao Pappa, ciao Momma!
The Italians are coming!

(see Breaking Away reference in above post)

The one picture I don't have downloaded is of the winged wheel Campy decal on the seat tube panel.
Just like PastorBobs "Sporty", only smaller.

Ciao 4 now!
