It’s home.
white industry NOS hub..stay or swap with Phil Wood
cockpit… replace with 3ttt
front D… gotta go and replace with campy.
seat posts….replace with some campy panto I have laying about
gipemme cranks…keep. Super cool
campy Chorus rear D…replace with super record
Shimano brakes…replace with campy, maybe a set of those deltas I have from the pile of deltas I’ve acquired.

That spear still weirds me out. Why not lugs like Pog did. Or at least Panto them. Seems haphazard.

Greta is suspicious that the saddle matches her a little too close.

Greta’s daughter Isa always has an ear up…for rare and vintage.

You need a panoramic camera for Tandems

Spool chain stay bracket. (1979?)

I love me some Campy, but these I suspect were stock. They stay.

I know. No braze on. But c’mon…zip ties?? Benoto Tandem fork. Confused.

saddles. …they match my dog. Why not.

If your dogs misbehave now you can threaten to turn them into bicycle saddles.

The bike is crazy indeed, but in a crazy cool sorta way.

Just like my parents used to threaten us kids…
”if you don’t behave. Someone will make you into a lamp shade.”
