Andy_K You call that a transgression?

Suntour FD on my mostly French touring bike... They handle triples well.



'83 Frankenag Super: Stronglight 105 cranks, Shimano Crane RD, Dia-Compe Gran Compe brakes, Suntour shift levers, Campy FD, hubs and seatpost bolt.



Hide the kids, cover your eyes... Colnago Technos with a 1987 Shimano Deore XT MTB gruppo...

A carbon fork... With blue masking tape, no less.
A proper all Campy Gios frankenbike.



One of my all time favorite riding and handling bikes - my 1984 Gitane Super Corsa. I built up from a bare frame with parts I had on hand. The Simplex SX-610 RD index shifts a Shimano 8 speed cassette very well with Sachs Rival levers thank you.



Last but not least, my 1975 "all Campy" Raleigh Pro. The frame arrived one Saturday back 2007. I was in a hurry to build it up that evening and take it out for a spin on Sunday morning. Didn't have a Campy BB handy so I threw in a Stronglight crank. Haven't gotten around to changing it.



Oh, and one more transgression, all of my cassette hubs except for one are Shimanos - no matter what the front hubs are. Campy, Maillard, Suntour front, Shimano rear....
