This is my 1994 Ritchey P-21. It has a secret.
Moving in, let's look at the rear deraileur. The little cable tension adjusting knob has been replaced.

BUMP!
Instead of editing my above post, let's just show:
Don't cha love it when sunlight filtered by beige curtains makes the components (almost?) look like gold, even those parts not necessarily at the top of the collector's list.

28 hole Campy Record hub, Alpina spokes. I was torn between drive-side or lever; I thought this looked better.

From Eroica California 2016, the one year that I did not ride my bicycle in that event. I drove support instead.
