Last night I came home to find my Pinarello Treviso frameset had arrived and this morning my Tommaso frameset arrived. I have a lot of work ahead of me over these next few months to get them built up.

I got a bottom bracket- an old school Schimano 600, but it was actually Thursday. I bought a new frame and then discovered that my old frame had Italian threads and the new frame has English threads.

Old suntour stem shifters from eBay. The seller had advertised them as clamp on friction down tube shifters, which of course is what I wanted. Grrr..... Now trying to get paypal to help me resolve the issue. Lame

Those are good derailleurs! I had a plain jane Vx (not a GT) set up with Accushift 6-speed in index mode. Rode it that way on my commuter for a couple years. Worked like a charm.

NOS Stronglight x14 needle bearing headset for a build I'm almost done with. If you have a quirky French made frame it deserves it's own quirky headset!

a Suntour XC expert 8 speed thumb shifter for my flat bar cyclocross bike. To match (close enough) the XC pro thumbie on the left side of the bars. Best thumbies ever made and the haven't been improved upon since their introduction in the early 90s.
