I like the bike, but the staging reminds me of this -

I'll put the latest out there I guess. Mid 90s Giordana Xl Super, 17 lbs 14 ozs as in the first pic. Sporting Campagnolo Record 10 speed and riding like magic on the road.

This one misses the mark. While I can always appreciate classic iron, hot it's not.
The tri-paired rear spokes are in argument with the vintage frame as are the bold wheel logos. This bike needs all silver wheels with no logo. Then the staging is utterly abhorrent. If you are going to go to the trouble of the Olin Mills backdrop route, you need to knock the wrinkles out of the sheet. The elevated rear stand kills the lines of the bike. White bar tape has its place. Clean white bar tape that is.
