Thanks very much.
According to the shop where I got it, The original tires were 27 + fraction (not sure) inches. I have the original Campy brake calipers and they cleaned up very nicely. I haven't cleaned the front one so that I can show some before/after pictures.
So, would it be best to find a 27 x/x tires and keep the current brake calipers or 700 tires and get new calipers? Also, the actual brake pads that were on the calipers look like they're in great shape. I'm just worried that the material hasn't aged well. The pads are very hard and I'm not sure if they're supposed to have some give or if they should feel like that. I could replace those easily if I need to.
edit: Am I correct that those are the two options I have? I want to make sure I'm understanding this right.
I do need a clamp on FD.
What about the freewheel? I think I have an idea of what tires/rims to get but is there a certain freewheel I should be looking at?
edit: Yeah, I'm a student. I'll try and get to some of the other bike shops today.
edit: I'll definitely have pictures of everything tonight.
