That is a big frame. How old, like 1970 or so? Nice.

Gran Sport? I got a deal goin for one a them, too!
I splurged a little and bought myself a set of Royal Gran Compe levers, in black, at a screamin' price, a few days ago. Very happy with them and I think the gold lettering will match the MAFAC Competition brakes nicely.

Hmmm...that frame looks like it might be too big for you. You should probably send it to me so you don't have to deal with the hassle of building it up.

Thanks for the compliments. It's a 1972 Raleigh Professional Track frame with campagnolo Pista Head set. Size 61cm. Be sure to add your goodies to the thread. I know I am not the only one buying their own Xmas presents.
