What components are on this bike?
Does anybody know what crank this is?
What about the other stuff, any clue? http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/1680/567442468big.jpg Thanks for any help and sorry for the bad picture! Alessandro |
Looks like Campy Athena to me?
|
I didn't see the brifters, looks like it could be older Campy chorus:

Wasnt there any athena with brifters?
|
The groupset could also be '94 Veloce. This groupset had cranks, brifters, callipers and rear derailleur similar to the bike you have posted. Unfortunately it is a little hard to see the components in your photo.
The seatpost looks like an older ITM item. |
I agree with Gary that It could be Veloce. It does not look like Athena/Chorus to me. Especially the brakes and chainset looks like a cheaper group.
|
good call on the brakes, totally different.
|
look like silver ones to me :p

Early 90s crank (that fused look in the spider and the small Campy logo at right angles to the arm & no group name)--monoplaner-style brakes; with first gen 8 spd brifters (see the hood shape) The black shift levers under the brake levers make me think these are lower spec than Chorus. The only group I used of that generation was Mirage that looked similar, but I have no idea.
Nice bike, though. Were you wanting to upgrade, or decide if the components are worth keeping? If it is indeed Campy 8 spd, you can still get chains and cassettes, brake shoes, lever/shifter parts to keep it on the road. If the shifting is not crisp, especially on the rear shifter, then it may need rebuild. Again, if it is 8spd, you can upgrade or replace the wheels with a 9/10spd set, and then buying a loose cog 9spd Veloce cassette, and leave out one cog, replace the 9spd spacers with the ones from your old 8 spd, use a new 9spd chain & voila, you have an upgraded drive train and a wide choice of new wheels.;) |
They told me it's 9 speed so...
I have a Chorus 9 speed myself and it looks very quite different but that may be another generation as well. I'm really just looking for this bike to use it's component as replacement for what breaks down on my main ride. |
