Can we get a close-up of the Strata pedals?
I see you got your Mk7 shifter hooked up. Did you get the threading issue on your shifter boss sorted out? When I bought my Grubb, the shifter boss was spinning free and could not be threaded, so I had to have a new (Huret) one welded on.
Thanks, chainring is 48T. This one is a rider and a keeper. As far a s the shifter boss is concerned, I had read some not so great accounts about the Benelux, and of course decided to go Campy Gran Sport without trying it.
Well that idea quickly died when I found out a Campy shifter wouldn't thread into the shifter braze-on. On to plan B. I asked around in PM's but couldn't find definitive answer and the build stalled until
this thread popped up.
I finally had some answers.
