I'm now looking after the other parts, obviously have to decide what i wanted this bike to be, major choice between sti levers and bar end shifters, i wanted most the latter, they look more "touringish"... while thinking about, i found a decent priced -used- nitto B135AA rando handlebar! I feel like it's a good mix between tour, race look and comfort. After a good clean, turned out new!
It's 25.4mm clamp sized, i'm so forced to look for some stem on this size, found an unbranded one priced honestly, 60mm.
Seatpost was tricky, i wanted something new and with a size of 26.6mm i had not a good variety to pick from, found on Ebay something that was what i wanted, but when it arrived it was completely different (look at pics). Had to, as planned, cut it smaller from 350mm, and additionally remove the decals with solvent.
