white Blumel fenders? Nice!
I've got a spare set of white Blumel Popular fender purchased when the LBS was cleaning out their basement. Still wondering what to do with them. They do seem like they would be rather fragile. BITD, I had some aluminum Blumel "Lightweight" fenders on my Gran Sport. All I remember is that they made a lot of noise. In retrospect, I think they must have been rather nice.
Also... you get extra credit for the Huret Multito odometer! Does it have an Ant+ connection to the power meters in your pedals?
I've stuck with an intermediate point in technology, using Avocet computers on my vintage bikes. Yeah, the battery has to be replaced annually, but no software updates are needed and there's no need to pair it with anything else on the bike. I do like the speedometer function too.
