Been working on my colnago and turned it into a fixed conversion. I just got hold of a campagnolo 9 speed titanium gruppo which i will be sticking on to the frame as soon as my LBS opens so i can buy some jagwire cables. Any idea what color should i get for the cables, blue or black? i was thinking saddle and bartape to be all black or maybe suede blue.
This is awesome. Please put gears on it.

can someone sanity check this for me.
my current gearing is 48/17
If I change to 49/18 my wheel will move 1/4" in towards the seattube? is that correct? 1/8" for each tooth increase?
Then If I add 1 link to my chain it will move the wheel back 1/2"?
So the wheel will be 1/4" further out from where it started? or about 6mm?
Am I missing something?
If Chardonnay has 6 apples and gives Barry a gobbie what time will the first train reach bristol?

In theory that must be so but if you have critical clearances, for example just room in the rear ends to move forward 1/4" then Sod's Law kicks in and it never quite works as it should. It is one of life's unsolved mysteries along with choosing axle length/bottom bracket shells for early classics. -

this far Gazzetta is the best option for 380 euros.
only issue is the poor paint, as I have heard.
^ agreed
