Thanks. I still have the "right" Look pedals somewhere but no cleats. Components for wheels (7400 hubs on Wolber Aspin rims and mid 90's Conti Competition tubulars) are present too (but not built yet) and a period-correct saddle and bottle cages will come too, I hope. But right now I just wanted to ride the bike. :-)
You know what saddle they used? Vetta? Saw a footage on Youtube of the 1991 Tour of Flanders (Sörensen and a teammate were in the lead group of 4) and they were wearing those enormous Vetta helmets. Think I will keep my Speci though. ;-)
I became a fan the day Moreno Argentin (team Ariostea at the moment) placed the race-winning escape in our street in the 1990 Tour of Flanders.

^^^Wicked, excellent work
back in '91 (when I was a little fanboy) I had a poster on my wall of Sørensen riding one of those
^ It wasn't that one, but I thought I'd post it for amusement value.
(wheels, tyres Keos, cages and saddle could be a bit more period correct but hey ho - it's splendid and this ain't pron, enjoy it!)
