So, I just bought this this.
Late 90s Fondriest steel track frame with Dedacciai Optima tubing. Total weight for frame and forks is 2625g.
I gotta say, I'm not quite sure where to go with this. The frame is so colourful that I'm not really sure what components would look good on there.
I'm pretty sure I'd like to get some Nitto B105AA drops for it. Should I stick with just black saddle and bar tape? I wonder if any kind of colour would just look ridiculous.
Also I have a bit of a soft spot for the h+son tb14s, which I'm thinking of having built up with some high flange hubs and gumwall tyres. Again I'm not quite sure if they'd fit, or maybe some archetype rims would be better instead?
Ah, questions...
