A friend of mine came across this bike through a friend of his, someone had dumpstered it and they rescued it. He painted it matte black and polished the chrome lugs. It had some crappy road bars that i tossed out and threw on the bullhorn.Also it had a campy crankset on it but one of the arms was broken, and it had a tubular rear wheel with a campy hub but the rim was damaged, once I find a matching front hub and some deserving rims, I'll build up a proper wheelset for this beast. I'd like to go all campy on this eventually, I have a record headset coming to me in a week or two so I can get rid of that nasty looking 600 headset.
