Initial build was almost fully indistinguishable from bikes of the preceding 20 years, Weinmann 190 brake levers and clips-n-straps on an SR copy of MKS Sylvan track pedals.
The concession to modernity was that polymers had arrived, so the toe clips were plastic, as were the lever brackets (glass filled nylon) and headset cups (acetal). History suggests that only one of these things was a good idea 🙂
