eh.
I bought it, but then when I got home I find a tiny crack in the non-driveside crank arm near the crankbolt. That plus the tubular tires...kinda regret it, not that I got a bad deal at 130. 3TTT bars and stem and full dura ace.
I have another project with dura ace on it from same era, maybe I will get lucky and find out the driveside crankarm is cracked on that one. Then I will have a complete set =).

Lets see, $400 worth of part out, for $130, I would not regret it for a second.

Don't regret the tubs if they still have a lot of miles in them left. Just enjoy riding them and then maybe sell off the wheelset if you get a flat....then use the money to partially fund a new clincher wheelset for the bike. If you haven't tried tubs yet, who knows.....you might change your mind about them because tubs ride so much better than most clinchers.

I agree though you should be able to find a replacement crank or set for a decent price. If those tubulars are 7spd cassette I know a gal who may be interested if the price is right.

The Dura Ace 7400 group are the best esthetically comparable to Campy Croce D'aune group!
