Its nearly done... Just awaiting spokes for new wheels (KinLin ADHN polished on NOS Ultegra 6600 with Sapim SS DB spokes and DT brass regular nipples + 28c tyres, probably Pro Slik)
Stuck with original brakes as they are fine, added Koolstop salmons so that they work in the wet/ on a polished/machined rim.
Cinelli stem + VO porteur bars + tektro inverse/suicide levers + fizik black tape + NOS 8s deore thumbie
Single arabesque 42t on 600 arabesque cranks with whatever pedals were floating about. 8s sram 11-28t cassette + KMC x99 8s chain + campag long cage mech, will swap to arabesque long cage when I find one.
VO hammered mudguards + campag aero post + selle turbo ladies town saddle + king cage stainless classic
Despite the hefty 6s campag wheel + freewheel thats currently boat anchoring the back end down just now its surprisingly light, certainly no point going lighter and it looks amazing in the flesh. Everywhere it goes it gets attention, little too much attention in town when locked up so might have to get my GF to invest in a FAHG or 2x mini D as current mid D is maybe not quite enough
