• oops don't you hate that when you hit the end of the page mid post

    Just struck a deal on this from a seller in Italy. I love the AD10 scheme, I already have one dressed in Dura Ace but this has full Campag Chorus which helped me justify just having to have it as well.
    It’s coming ‘economy delivery’ so doubt I’ll see it for a good few days but very excited indeed.

    I was browsing, looking for a donor bike with a Chorus or Athena groupset to build up a Super frame that I currently have in single speed guise but I saw this but am not so sure that I’ll break it. The groupset would be perfect for the Super and I’d really fancy doing modernish groupset build on the Master, something like Record Carbon 10 speed but I doubt very much that’ll happen and I’ll most likely just keep it as it is………….well not the saddle and bar tape anyhow

  • Hey @WimVDD
    Yer totally with you there. It arrived Friday actually and I had a play with it yesterday. I changed the bar and stem to a silver Cinelli set but then swapped it back again as I preferred the 'look' of the black. The stem looks a lot nicer slammed down but I'm gonna be riding it and it wasn't a comfy fit so it went back up again although not as extreme. I've already an AD10 with a silver cockpit and it's nice to have this setup a bit different. I did however re-route the brake cables to the 'British' way for a bit more familiarity. I think it's pretty original too as it has a nice pair of Colnago oem Ambrosia Giro D'Italia 'servizio corse' rims and think the bar/stem combo was original fit as well. Just waiting for some replacement downtube bosses to fit (they're rusty and seized), gear cables, set-up and lubricate it then pray for some nice weather. I've been busy building up an '85 Alan Super Rec Cyclocross which will satisfy my urge to pedal and get a bit mucky this winter.
