The old school levers have great modulation and cable friction are non-existence, and very easy to service.
Problem is, I like to ride on the hood, especially during the last tour it went on, but likely to go back to the old levers again after finding the perfect saddle (like 100% perfect with no pain, numb or anything).
Will have to contact you soon about repainting this.

Have to say I prefer the second picture, it looks so classy and purposeful, really digging the nice little spike at the front of the seat-tube/top-tube.
Any reason you originally had the old-school brake levers on the old pic and then switched to newer, chunkier ones? Every single retro looking build I go for I build up with old-school campy levers then realise how much I hate them and switch over to modern ones.
