Aint too shabby! Although Id investigate some different bar tape and pedals myself!
I like the pedals alot. Wish I had a pair in that awesome colour scheme!
I'm less impressed by the seatpost. It could be Italian - possibly a 3TTT... but it looks cheap and nasty. Not quite as stylish as the quality Athena the rest of the bike is dripping with.
I'm guessing the frame might be a bit older than the parts. Looks like it might have a Nuovo Record headset.
Your customer clearly doesn't ride any real distance on his bike with the saddle in that position. Reminds me of the kids who buy "fixies" having no idea how to set them up, and do the same thing.

I liked them too. I don't know whether they were custom sprayed or came like that from Look. :?
It's a Kalloy, I think. You can't see it from that angle but there's a rivet in the front of the post. It looks like the head came unbonded at some point and was repaired (that's what I think anyway).
He's only ridden it to the shop from his house before (a couple of miles at most). The bike was given to him by his uncle apparently! I wish I had an uncle that gave me stuff like that! :shock:
BTW how can you tell that's Athena on there? A lot of the Campag parts around that time look the same to me (not that I see a lot of them mind you). :?

Search for Sylvain bikes on this site , his saddle angle is worse than that and he is probably faster than all of us on here .
