Campagnolo’s engineers must have been freebasing like everyone else in the mid 80s.
Delta brakes.
SGR pedals.
Brake levers about a foot away from the bar.
Front derailleur that doesn’t fit standard braze ons.
Inflatable saddle.
Thermos and aero bidons.
So many good ideas horribly executed.
I got one of the first C Record bikes in North America from Guiseppe Cramerotti and it was absolute shit.

Almost full Chorus 1998

Would this count as full if I swapped the 7400 seatpost for a 7410? Headset is 7410, chainset and hubs, 7600.

Is it the NJS version ?
not fan with the radial but awesome bike by the way

Thanks. Nice to get the nod from a master of clean builds.

It's not NJS. Does the NJS version come in ISO as well as JIS? I do get confused with NJS standards.

I bought the wheels used, and I'm not going to race on them, so gonna keep radial front.

I've got a 27.2 7410 seatpost but, annoyingly, the frame is 27.0. I thought that was impossible: I'd never, ever, heard of a British 531 frame being anything other than 27.2. I've since read that it could be down to how the framebuilder chose to finish the seat cluster. I may speak to Geoff Roberts about whether I can ream it carefully. I do want that clean 7410 finish.

You can find a 27,0 7410 seatpost : )

You are quite right of course. I guess the 27.0 531 must be bothering me more than I thought. Gotta get to the bottom of it.
