Pedals now sorted. Still on the hunt for the cog and saddle.

Still on the lookout for cog and saddle to replace the rubbish ones I've got.
Additionally, I fitted the bars to the bike yesterday, and they felt awful, as they're 42cm wide. I usually run bars that are 38cm (ctc). I wouldn't have thought that 4cm could make such a difference, but clearly it does.
As such, I'm after some beater road drop bars to use with a quill stem (26.4mm). Any old tat will do, as long as they're cheap, and they're narrow.

If your stem is 26.4mm, then you're after Cinelli bars: only they used that standard, before switching to 26mm (in the early Nineties I think).
I have a 26.0mm stem, which would broaden your options. I may also have a sprocket: I'll check and get back to you.

The existing stem is a Cinelli one, yes, but the bars are not. They're Ambrosio Campione del Monde, and having measured the centre with a micrometer, I can confirm that they're 26.4mm. (Velobase agrees: http://velobase.com/ViewComponent.aspx?ID=9DCB7458-1042-46ED-B570-EAC15E104876&Enum=112&AbsPos=0 )
Stem and bar combination would work too, providing the stem has a 90mm reach.
Cheers.

Well that's my lesson for the day! I've never come across anything 26.4mm that wasn't Cinelli.
And sorry, but I don't have a sprocket.
I'm getting to the end of my winter build, and before I go out and buy new, does anyone have any of the following knocking about in their spares box that they'd be willing to let go for a reasonable price:
M520, M540 SPD pedals or similar, in silver ideally [SORTED]
A decent quality 3/32" 19T cog (Andel would be ideal)
Leather saddle - Brooks would be great, but something cheaper like a Spa one would do fine too. A Rolls would be great as well.
Let me know. Cheers.
