I am chuffed to bits with this frame. The seller says it was made as a one-off for him in '93 by none other than Steve Wade - that the original owner used to ride with Wade was confirmed by none other than our own Cannondale King...!

that is unexpected :?
do campag though, unless you're gonna go for period dura ace
do campag though, unless you're gonna go for period dura ace
ere thats cool LGF. particularly like the colour and the power forks.
remember, not too long ago 90% of quality steel frames had campag dropouts and all gruppos were used.
what's the headset? that might give a hint at what group to go with.
personally, if were putting STi's/ergos on it, I'd have campag as I cant stand shimano STI's, but if I were having DT levers, I'd have shimano cos older parts are cheaper/easier to obtain/more interchangeable.

The headset is Campagnolo.
I have so far:
Campagnolo hubs, d/t levers/ chainset/ f&r mechs
dont have any brakes or levers yet

To me, the ultimate build on this bike would be period correct Ultegra(with DT shifters and headset)- It's a workman-like bike made by a company that is known for reliability and no-hype high-quality products. I'd finish it off with a Turbo, American Classic post, Cinelli XA stem and Giro '64's.
I'd run ultegra hubs on NOS mavic Gp4 tubs and modern 24cVittoria pave evo cg's.
That's just what I'd do. Durace and Campy are great and everything, but the build that I suggested will outlast the Apocalypse while still being light, precise and very fun to ride.
Save the Campy bits for a Cinelli.
