Bar tape looks good.
I reckon the Mercian will be versatile enough for black, silver or deep-section carbon wheels. I put 60/80 carbon wheels on an old 753 track frame and it looked superb.

Agreed.
On the subject of wheels, these arrived the other day from @teew. A pair of Primato pistas that have seen a bit of action.
The plan is to pull and replace the bearings and mirror polish the outside of the flanges. Time consuming? Yes. Economically viable? Maybe. I'm currently looking at some ceramic/steel hybrid bearings which should be an upgrade from the standard Miche ones

Small update. I've ordered a couple of rolls of deda elementi jaguar green bar tape. Hopefully it should be ok...
