Suggestions on a complete frame build up
I've got a frame half built up and looking to go with a 60's theme to it. It'll be getting built up with 60's Campagnolo GS/Valentino/Sport bits.
Here's what I've got so far Crankset - Campag Sport Rear Derailleur - Campag Valentino Extra Front Derailleur - Campag Valentino (looking for one with the chrome cages and polished clamp) Shifters - Gran Sport or Bar end shifters (undecided on which to use) Rims - Fiamme Red Label tubulars 36 hole Stem - Early 3T Still Need Stem - 3T Record Stem 90mm Bars - 3T Superleggero 42mm Brake Levers - Gran Sport Cable guide - Campag Downtube cable guide clamp and cable stop clamp BB - Campag (unsure of width until frame is built) Seatpost - Gran Sport seat post 27.2 Here's where I need your help with these other pieces. Not sure what to do Hubs Calipers Pedals Toe clips Saddle (have a couple to choose from...Cinelli Unicanitor #3 , Brooks Pro, B17 black) Cable housing color (full housing for brakes) Tires (want something in the low to mid 30's) Bar tape (not a fan of Brooks) bottle cage The frame will be white with a black seat tube and headtube. Unsure about font but nothing flashy. |
Brooks.
Grey Housing Shellac'd Newbaums Something Gumwall Universal 61 TA bottle cage Hubs: Either high flange campy or Normandy Chrome Toe Clips Lyotard Pedals |
I'm not sure I'm sold on shellac'd tape. just looking for a 30'ish mm tubular road tire. Something along the lines of the Challenge Bianca Strada. I've a couple sets of high flange Record hubs but since I'm not doing a Record build I wasn't planning on using them. Possibly high flange Tipos but what people are charging for them I'm not too sure. Never really dug Normandy hubs. I've got a rear early GS hub with the steel center and aluminum flanges that might be more correct.
