• Wow those ar e two very fine looking bikes there ! Much prefer the all silver levers to the silver with black plastic version, always made them look cheap like the old mirage back in the day.

  • Thanks! Interesting you mention those levers - my son is happy with the PowerShift, he knows no better, but I miss the Chorus/Record UltraShift vibe. I've been feeling the urge to swap out the bodies for UltraShift and keep the silver brake lever blades, but as you rightly point out the silver gear paddles are class. Decisions, decisions... 🤔

    Only just realised what damage an iPhone does to the colour of the Moser, it's nowhere near that fluoro - this is a bit closer...

  • Its a detail thats always bothered me on some of these modern retro builds, all that chrome and aluminium components just to have two black levers !
    Maybe a quick paint with silver spray paint ? Or swap out a metal pair for plastic ones ?

    I had this Somec a couple of years ago and stuck with the slightly older groupset just to keep it all silver.
    Ofcourse if its a Record groupset then I make the acception.
