Progress on the bike has been really slow.
I was hoping to get my hands on a Shimano 600 groupset yesterday, but the frame it was on was unfortunately in too bad of a condition for me to buy it.
Luckily I have been able to track down some nice handlebars, or three to be exact. I got a bit carried away with my recent fascination of ITM Dual CX bars, so this week two NOS ones were delivered (a black ahead and a silver quill with a flat base bar) and one used one (quill with a sloping base bar). The used one matches the frame beautifully, so I will be selling off the other two.
The seatpost and the saddle on the pictures are just two items I had lying around. The frame requires a 27.0mm seatpost and the only one I had available was a Suntour Superb Pro. The saddle is an Ultra Pro, made in France. I believe it is the same as the ones made for Corima.
