Dancelli Supercorsa

for your kind words. I was just not happy with my Shimano 600/Ultegra 6401/6400F braze-on FD, then i actually had the occasion to get my Campagnolo super record FD, which you can see here, pretty cheap from my mothers birthplace Milan, so i just had to go for it, beyond that i always wanted some super record bit - it matches also perfectly with the lightweight avional drilled & black anodised chainrings, as with the Gipiemme Panto crank. Especially since i do not own a pair of classic bicycle racing shoes for cleats, the (Nuovo) Triomphe pedals with the ICS erogonometric toe clips(thanks to the double toe strap duct - the strap can be pretty tight and you can get in&out without any problems)are very comfy even for urban use with normal sneakers. A picture with with the new Gipiemme Crono Sprint 600 BA seat post is missing and i'm planing on renewing actually all my bicycle pictures with just a few exceptions.
And always nice to see you active here; spreading kind words and sharing your bicycle knowledge&experience with us.
best regards Ravi

I like how you put it about getting a groupset. When you are determined to do a build you do essentially "go for it". I also agree with the freedom the toe straps give you opposed to cleat type pedals. Don't get me wrong. Carbon fiber soled racing shoes are stiff as f***. I just want to be able to jump off my bike and take action if I have to.

btw lots of interesting pursuit/tt bikes you got, hmsgenoa :D.

(btw on velobase they have plenty of parts+informations)

Your so right on the Gimondi bend, it's real superb. And yes the galli stuff is awesome, got now a second pair of galli brake calipers (which i mounted on my other bike https://velospace.org/node/38876) and aside from being visually pleasing, they perform great and are real light.
And thanks again for the kind words, as you recognized the number of interesting parts :D to start with the handlebar weight 240gr, the Primax(weight. 90gr) or Rudelli headset(both needle bearings)(the latter is also mounted on my other bike) and aswell the gipiemme cr. sprint curved down tubeshifters
or the gipiemme special miled crank or the mavic 501 hubs (industrial sealed bearing) and the reflex sup clincher rims or the cambio rino stuff.

Took some time to get this one together.

The overall condition is excellent(some minor visual exceptions)(Frame is nos with some shop wear).

best regards

to 2nd the respect for the interesting build! Midnight blue is gorgeous.

for your kind words. Midnight blue is awesome,
btw you got a good taste :D

Your bikes are real nice. Fine work.
Actually i have to refill the seattube lug and also the micro cut out of the brake bridge with some yellow paint. Should have got maybe straight away a new saddle and not an used one since so much is nos and shiny :D.
And im still waiting for some sunny days for good bright pictures..........

forward to. It's nice to anticipate improving our bikes. You shouldn't have to do too much on that beauty though.
