I’m going to learn a lot on this bike I can tell already

it is an 8 speed with campagnolo chorus brakes and Racing T drive chain with a triple crank. Campy hubs on mavic wheels. One has a blue sticker that says ‘reflex’ and the other has a red mavic sticker but it’s peeled off. Both have a SUP UB Control decal as well.
Hopefully the POA is worth the "valuable learning experience".

This happens most of the time IME, blinded by the light, oh, wait, , damnit Jim, hate it when that happens.

All part of the fun and usually does teach us a thing or two, ain't life grand?
