I had a pair of Shamal for a couple of months. They can be very aero but as long as I was not doing TT but more touring with ups & down hills, I found them very heavy. Nice looking wheels but harsh to ride. Sold them fast and replaced with low profile open pro's. I presume vento's will be...

Thanks, I do not know much about campy, I've always been more fan of Shimano. I was not aware I can not swap the 7 speed cassette with an 8 speed one. So end of the story, I'll go slower ... This is the hub and cassette, and the Olmo finishing the restoring process... Group is 91-94, with...

Thanks, that's the issue... Do not any compatible brand go up to 32 ? Old Claris ? anyone has any experience ? 42-26 is a little hard to me...

I have a 7 campy cassete I want to upgrade to 8 speed , 32 cogg. I know 7 to 8 speed is not an issue as spacing is the same (I've got 8 speed shifter already), but I'm having difficulties finding a 8 speed campy or compatble cassete with biggest coog 32t. I've seen the miche ones, but it seems...

Thanks ! here there are some pics. From google research I'd say could be an Olmo Competition, but it's just my best guess, as I'm not familiar with Olmo brand. So any help to determine frame model would be appreciated!

Can anyone help me please to get a Olmo catalog from late 80's or early 90's. I have an Olmo with c-record 7 speed indexed groupset and cobalto brakes presumably from that period, but I can not identify model /tubing. Thanks!

I'm looking for something like old super record thicker (5mm ?) grey cable housing & thick (1.8 mm ?) internal brake cable from early 80's. Anyone knows if any brand is producing some replicas or similar looking thicker sets ?

I was expecting the typical bottom bracket with ball bearings ... when I've found this one. Can any expert tell something about it please. Thanks!

Congrats as well ! They both look new. I'm for size 54, just in case ;)

Re: Paletti's are very very expensive and hard to find but in my opinion, that frame is a piece of art, built with the best materials... And superb paint; pearl white with blue deails and the exact ammount of chrome.... Did you notice this is one of my dreamed frames ? Congrats for the project!!

I've got this beauty into my collection recently and I want to start this time a nice restoration thread, with all the findings , learnings, problems... To be honest, compared to other resto projects on the forum , this is going to be a simple one, basically a clean and grease process, plus...

If it helps, I've seen in the components sale thread, user scant is selling an OCLV carbon frame , size 56

but the tricky thing is how to do it in case you forgot and removed the rim before removing the freewheel, - like me ;( so it is not possible to hold it properly while applying enough torque.... I tried many options, as described in this forum ... On other ocasions some worked out for me as...

Hi, is this the only difference ? Did Ti axle on these hubs really exist ?

thanks , but after a couple of hours with this I quit. Will try to get these spring pins, I believe a standard pin on ebay should work, don't need to be speific for DA7400. WIll have a look

No way. I read now there is a special tool to assembly the return spring..... The pics are for 7800 series, but should be the same . Tried with a cable brake end but didn't work.

polish done. Any trick to insert again this spring ????

yep, it worked ! -but I did not find the spring... maybe jumped off;( Here it is the result, the front cap polished...

Right, removing the lever is easy, and that allowed me to polish one part with nice results. I was not sure if to remove the front cap I need the special tool, but reading your comment it seems not, so I'll give a it a try again. This is the other piece I need to sand the chrome and polish...

found this step by step guide: https://imgur.com/a/4IT1J Is this what you say "a piece of cake " ? ;)
