Hey all,
here is my current project, built from scratch, fully functional but the current belleri handlebar will be replaced by a
sachs new success (copy of modolo X-tenos) and the vitus seatpost will be replaced by a chorus (more straight).
Veneto frame, columbus cromor
Italia saddle (model???)
Sachs New Success brakes, ergo levers, rear and front mech
Mavic 631 crankset, Mavic 640 pedals, Mavic open pro rims laced on ultegra 6400 hubs
I like that. A lot.
For me, aesthetically, I'd have the stem a bit higher and the ergos further round the bends with the bars rotated. But you're changing the bars you said so.....
Apparently you can use the Sachs ergo levers with the gorgeous Mavic rear dérailleur, cool mongrel drivetrain. I thought about trying it on my Cougar, I have that same second generation 631 chainset too. Sachs new success is pretty nice though, what are the brakes like?
