Finished building up my Marco Lietti 88/89 Bottecchia frame from a few pages back. Here is the man himself looking like Napolean Dynamite's cool Italian cousin.
I've kitted it with mostly 20 speed Campag Chorus, and the classic Mavic Starfish crankset as a nod to 89. I've had to fit mine with Stronglight rings for 10 speed chain as the original 8 speed rings were too fat. 3T bars and stem, Record FD and brakes, Record hubs laced with Ambrosio Excellence rims and 28c Turbo Cotton tyres.
Super chuffed to have found a original red Elite bottle cage to match the white one that came with the frame, and love these cranks all shined up in the sunshine.
And as the sun was out I had to give it a quick pic with some classic Shamals :)
