A question for the Campagnolo experts.
Just in the very initial phases of a new build, I was going to go with a Mavic or late Sachs group, but now I'm thinking Campag.
Turn back the clock to 1985, how would you build this.
The Frame:
83-85 ish Falcon "Team" bought from a fellow forumite, Reynolds 501, so not quite a top frame, but not bad. Bright red with white decals. Probably will get refreshed with new paint/decals. It's very much a race geometry frame, and It will get built that way.
The wheels:
Maillard low flange laced to Weinmann box section 700c rims from a decent late 80's Schwinn.
Stem:
Classy looking late GB.
Crankset,
80's Stronglight.
What I'm undecided about. What was the moderate Campagnolo group in '85, not TDF level, but appropriate for a club riders machine like this? I'm new to the world of Campagnolo.
Calipers and levers? Campag is probably out of the question cost wise, and in '85 they would still be non areo right? Like to stay away from my usual Weinmann's.
Bars: Like to avoid my usual Sake's or Nitto's
Saddle, will be a change from my usual Brooks.
What do you guys think??
