More stuff acquired , so back on with the Masi or maa-zee dream build.
keeping the original PMP Ti seat post , it's a nice piece of kit , 2 bolt cradle means getting the saddle level is real easy. Flite Ti saddle , my default choice , I stumped up for a new one , you have to be careful with used one's , they can sag in the middle .
Managed to snipe a pair of Super Record shifters for £100 , they're mint and the latest generation , good news , although it means I will have to use 2015+ derailleurs, which could be spendy.
Further Ebay wrangling was rewarded with a nice pair of SR brakes , DP on the front, mono at the rear, which is my preferred setup , this pair came with new Swiss stop pads , not sure if this is a bonus or not. Headset is the original Dura Ace , which I'm happy to stay with.
