Mercian Campionissino 1962

spog47 · May 24, 2017

Yet another project finished, this time a 1962 Mercian Campionissino 5 speed. I pick it up off ebay for a fair price but it was in need of some TLC.

Decided against against having it repainted because after getting in touch with Mercian they informed me the decals were no longer available so just a strip down and clean for this one.

Very nice, so good to see the originality kept...

I agree, cracking job. The bell looks much better where you've put it too.

Are they the same cranks and pedals?

Re:

Thanks for all your comments, yeah the cranks are the same but had to change the pedals. The only other things I've change are inner cables, HS + BB bearings,chain and new cloth bar tape.

Very lovely Mercian and certainly cleaned up nicely, not that it was bad before hand, but you've definitely given it a crisp clean look and taken away that tiredness.
Happy riding I'm sure.
