Wheels are solid, MA40 rims on Campy hubs. Re-tensioned by me. It was taken apart, the frame was treated with anti corrosion oil, and reassembled with fresh grease and new rubber about three years ago, when overhauled it as a riding project. AS you can see from the saddle height, it really is too big for me. I've ridden it around here 300-400 miles, but I have other stuff that fits better.
Reynolds 531 DB frame, Campy NR derailleurs, MAFAC centerpull brakes. The levers are something I find comfortable, but are newer than the rest of the bike. The pedals are pedals, but not real high end, from MKS. They worked well with my shoes.

That's a sweet bike, and I'd love to own it, but now is not a good time. We are planning a move very soon and any disposable income will surely be needed for expenses. Thanks for the note, hopefully I'll be back on my feet . . . . . eventually.

...I feel badly for you. If I had to move it would kill me.
