This
is my daily rider. Had to ebay/restore the rear Weinmann concave
rim and 126mm rear since the previous owner decided for some strange
reason to replace them with some weird modern components. Other
than that it has the original full Campy Nuovo Gran Sport parts
including unusual three arm crankset. The original Brooks Professional
seat was missing so it's been replaced with a nicely broken in B-17
with Acorn two strap roll bag. For night time riding, I converted
an old Schwinn Union bullet light retro fitted with a battery powered
LED for the front light while the rear has a Planet Bike Superflash
screwed into the old reflector mount. Brakes are Kool Stop salmon
low profile mountain pads and the tires are white Vittoria Randonneurs
32mm 700c. The original stem was a bit low so that was replaced
by a tall Nitto Technomic stem. Grips are inexpensive gel cork with
amber shellac. The last addition was a cheap Pyramid frame pump.
Overall, a nice vintage ride.
