Bikes: Many

The brand of the bike in that era really has nothing to do with which components you should use if something breaks.

If something needs replacing, check into the Classic & Vintage forum for information on some affordable and durable replacement parts. Most parts are pretty interchangeable, as long as you aren't talking about a valuable bike, then you may want to keep the parts consistent.

As "hinted at" above, you probably don't want to spend the money to put Shimano Dura-Ace or Campagnolo Super Record on the bike, since the bike is not a top end bike, but stranger things have happened.
