Panasonic DX2000 Chrome Campy with Reversed Mini Bullhorns
Finally finished, my Panasonic DX2000 all chrome 21 inch racer. Campagnolo record groupset, 165mm cranks, Shimano 600 brakes, Super Competition Wheels with campy hubs, MKS Copper track pedals, campy cages, Dia Compe Goldfinger levers, Nitto Mini Bullhorn reversed, SCT bar end plugs, and a brass badge Brooks saddle. Who's got a nice copper bell for me so I can be done?! Cheers - John

Pretty and cool.
I think the bars can go places your shoulders can’t, lol.
Nice job.

I just noticed your awesome stem. I did a similar build for my teen.

Never thought about it 'till you brought it up, but on NYC streets, that makes a whole lotta sense. There were lots of times I couldn't squeak my way between 2 cars, in traffic jams when I was a kid, because of the handlebars, but otherwise everything else would have squeezed through just fine.
(Q would have designed handlebars collapsible with a twist of the grip, and put in lots of other useful gadgets, besides... if only 007 had ridden a bike.)
(note to self: mask up, keep socially distanced, and go outside.)

Appropriate calipers for that frame, especially in the rear with the cable stops on the drive-side. But the front routing might make it difficult to keep the front caliper centered. If it's an issue, a simple fix would be to switch right for left, british style.
