• Ok so what am I planning for parts ...

    • I think an early 60s set of Record derailleurs, these are quite worn but look good and I suspect will still work well;
    • Gran Sport or Record hubs, I'm tempted by 36h to make rims easier, maybe even clinchers;
    • Alloy Record seatpost and probably a Brooks B17 Narrow;
    • Stronglight headset, bottom bracket, chainset maybe 40/50 Stronglight or TA chainrings or smaller inner depending on what the shifters can take (I haven't double checked) - I have most of this already and ok for a 60s build;
    • Lyotard pedals - again I've got some MB platforms and like those;
    • Probably a GB stem and bars, maybe brakes too.

    The pulley wheels will probably go, and the shifter bosses moved down, aligned and kept. I do also have Campag gear cable guide braze-on parts and TA water bottle bossses, it would be sensible to add these but they didn't appear till the 70s. Period correct vs common sense, discuss :D
