Tatty Ribble 653 with (mostly) Campag

I’ll not beat about the bush – this has been well used. Frame and fork have numerous rust spots which the previous owner has covered with paint, bottom bracket has also been painted - assuming in an effort to prevent rust. The braze on for the front derailleur has an area of rust where it attaches to the frame. The plastic cable guide under the bottom bracket has been glued in place.

Frame dimensions: seat-tube centre to top: 51cm, top tube: centre to centre: 53cm.

Mixture of Campag components: Athena headset, Mirage brakes with campag brake blocks, veloce rear derailleur, campag front derailleur (not sure which model), Campag chainset 52/39 with campag large ring (good condition) and reasonably new specialites TA small ring, 170mm cranks, veloce left hand lever/Daytona right hand lever.

Reasonably new shimano 9 speed cassette and kmc chain. No problems with mixing shimano/campag with the drivetrain with 9 speed.
Rear wheel mavic open pro on shimano ultegra cup and cone hub, front wheel: a wheel from a vitus road bike.
Gatorskin 23mm tyres in good condition.
Reasonably new Deda special bars with cinelli cork gel tape.
Unbranded silver seat post.
Reasonaby new kalloy stem.
Genesis saddle.

I've messaged someone about this, hopefully they'll be in touch or knowing him, he'll get me to do it !

Hi there
Where you based?

Based in Dorset nowadays, so I'll need to post it.

Interested in the frame and forks if you are willing to break.

Will bear it in mind. Ideally I'd like to sell as a complete bike.
