I think I tried a Nitto noodle bar for a bit but settled on a compact shape in the end, these are Soma Hwy One. That’s maybe the one upgrade it could stand to have, swapping those out for an M106.
After I snapped the Romin (#fatlad) I put an old Flite Ti on it, that’s been perfect. Thomson Elite post, CK headset, Pearl, second hand set of 75s with a Campag BB, EAI cog. Shimano levers and 6700 brake. Atomic22 security bolts on the seatpost and seat tube clamp. The wheels are the first set I ever built myself, over ten years ago now. I’ve replaced the bearings in the rear hub but never had to true either of them.
