Went for the maiden ride on Sunday and very pleased with it. I have a set of campagnolo hyperons and Rolf Prima's (which I think look better than the mavics but I need to have freehub conversions on both before I can use them)
Seat post binder that came with the frame bottomed out so I had to replace with a Raleigh one which I had in the spares box and it is a little tatty so will need to be replaced at some point.
I am also not sure that the 3T bottle cages will stay and I am thinking vintage style ones either in aluminium or perhaps anodized red / black.
I have taped the bars (badly, I know:) ) until I have finalised bar, stem and shifter positions. I intend to run the brake cables internally and put either foam grips or perhaps leather sew up wrap on in due course.
Now finished and rideable!
