A fun design brief you have set yourself.
Will you keep these bars or switch to drop bars?
A 10/11s groupset will work with 130 mm spacing, if that's the spacing you have. If you have 126 then spreading stays by 2 mm each side is not a crime.
I don't think you need any particular Campagnolo tools except for the cassette tool. And if you go Ultra Torque then you can just use any 10mm Allen key and a seatpost for leverage 😅. Don't go power torque unless you want to fight to remove cranks.
Consider shiny silver 10s Athena if you want ergo shifters, or maybe an 8s group if you want to use downtube levers / thumbies. Beware that 8s Campagnolo has a freehub pattern that only fits 8s Campagnolo. Doable but specific!
There are plenty of nice Campagnolo square taper cranks in 8/9/10s with rings that will go to 11s.

Since the last update I’ve moved to bristol, where it’s hillier. So I’ve been thinking about going for a geared setup on the Rossin, but I need help!
I’m imagining black rims, tan wall tyres, silver hubs… Then, groupset. Campagnolo is the obvious choice for the frame but I’ve never had any so don’t own the tools. And I’m keen for something modern, but the spacing is 130mm. And then what about the groupo
colour??
The silver against the black is nice contrast but all black is appealing too. But then all black bikes can look cheap sometimes. Help! Any opinions out there???
*and since I’m moving into new territory I’m gonna update the thread title.
