Made a bit of progress this week. Gears and brakes up and running. Shifters slipping a bit so I added some washers, which seemed to help.
Bought the Galli calipers and levers from @ncjlee (Super Criterium I think), and some Dia Compe gum hoods from the internet. Have got white tape, but that'll be going on last.
I've only got one tub at the moment so need to get another (any suggestions?). But put some clinchers on for a test ride, and I reckon it looks alright with the all black tyres?
Still need a new (old) saddle. I'm thinking a brown turbo/rolls etc. Or possibly a Brooks...
All for now.
