Almost done with the Pan-European build for the November BOTM. Complete Sachs New Success groupset. Hubs, shifters, everything. NOS brakes.
I meant admiring - not admitting hahaha!!
This going to be entered into BoTM? I’d love to se sit there and win if you do. Not just cos I’ve been following and admiring this build or the Venturi connection but it’s just so so nice and also Italian ! (My Scapin been entered for this months BoTM9
it will be worth it !!! I did a euro build once here:
Raleigh Dynatech Decade
Re: Quite like the build sans bar ends, but there are these on the 'bay at the moment... https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/333727834969?c ... gJGvPD_BwE II would go with rounded end X-Lite stubbies myself I think. I'm still scratching my head for other Euro brands, I know for the UK there were Kolo...

Yeah I'm gonna put it in the Euro BOTM in Nov. Debating between version 2.1 and 2.2 but it'll be something.
Keep meaning to do a Campy build but am uncertain I will live long enough to get all the parts together; kind of inclined to do as you did, just start slowly mixing it in with the Sachs stuff. The cranks were made by Campy anyway; that's my story and I'm sticking to it
Looks like this thing is gonna dodge two bullets. It survived one hurricane by the hair of its chinny-chin-chin ... we were flooded by Helene not quite a meter deep in brackish water; bike was about three inches above the high water mark. Happen to have it on the road with me so it won't be within 600 miles of ole Milton, which I expect will complete the transformation of our neighborhood into Pandaemonium. We'll be fine; I do feel for the folks in Asheville NC tho. The Bike Thrift Shop where I got my Ritchey got destroyed by Helene, looks like it was hit with a 500lb bomb

Ok here's the Pan European edition. FRM frame, headset and bars. Complete Sachs New Success group set. New Success hubs laced to 230 rims.
The brakes are beautiful, super nice levers. Not sold on the grip shifters but I'll take her for a ride tomorrow just so I can say I did
