1985 Zeus Victoria just built up with Utlegra - the group is a triple but I don't have a thin wall 15mm to get the Zeus crank arms off yet so I am running a Dura-Ace FD until I can get the triple crank on with the triple Ultegra FD...

Don't mind the green - I had a Chinese knock-off Tioga twin tail and couldn't resist having some fun and trying it out...

No problem, setting up a bike takes patience and time. Once done, that's when the enjoyment starts. Have fun and ride safe. Mike

I like both versions... The Campy version with the wide tires looks like an urban curb jumper. Great build and rebuild!

Some upgrades on my Coppi.

Got NOS hoods for shifters, made original design stickers, polished cranks and cable stops. Finally got hold of 600 27.0 seatpost and swapped wheels for same 600 tricolor hubs with maching open pro silver rims. Also got myself another flite, so track bike and road bike are no longer sharing seats.

Yes, polished crankset as there was some toe rub and scuffs on DS crank and major toe, heel rub and a lot of scratches on NDS one. Lost logos on DS crank, already had gone on NDS.
Shouldn't done that?

Great job. I've done the same on cranks with rub and it's always worth the effort

My Newest Build Fuji Roubaix

New to the thread but I have built several retro frames with ergo's.
My latest is a 1992 Fuji Roubaix with 105 1055sc drive and 10 speed Campy Veloce shifters.

here is my '84 trek 460. Waiting on an ebay auction to decide on what shifters I am going to run. Either brifters (sora) or barcons (shimano). I am running a 2x9 for sure. Here is a Pic as it sits now.

Really nice. You don't see a lot of that done to Fuji's in my area, very few Fuji's around.
Always been a smooth bike, IMO.

Hah, a Roubaix! You should sue Specialized.

For the price of Sora's, I'd go Microshift, Sunrace, or Forte (Performance).
Better shifters, more hand positions on the bars, and, in my experience, wicked easy to mount and use.

Wicked Pro job. Silver rocks, and everything is so nice. Subtle, classy, and modern kit.
Basically, a new bike that is better in every aspect than a new bike for twice the price.

Not that I have an opinion.......................
