To NOS or not NOS, that is the question 😵

I paid silly money for NOS Record Ergopower 8 speed brifters about 7 years ago. From Nigel at campyoldy, no longer in business.

I was initially shocked at the price he was seeking, and never considered buying them. But after a couple of months they were still there and I thought I'd never get the chance again once they were gone. So I bought. Never regretted it.

He had a great shop 👍
 
There's still quite a lot of old stock Campagnolo out there. I was passing through Western Spain last year on business. Through the Ribera valley out towards the coast at Santander. Stopped in at half a dozen bike shops along the route over several days. Lots of Nuovo Record and obviously lots and lots of vintage Zeus parts. Got chatting to a guy who had twenty Zeus full bikes in his lock up, still in the boxes.

Fortunately my wife was along with, and persuaded me to pass on buying em! Did come home with a few nice XTR boxed parts and a nice pair of Zeus titanium skewers. Twenty bikes tho... I asks ye! 😲
