The shifters you have are Campagnolo but a completely different model to what Tinker has in the photo. His are not low profile and have a lot more components to them.
These are what Tinker is using, I had some on my bike too in the '90's: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Campagnolo-E ... SwNgZfWim-


Might be, but yours were Euclid, Euclid were made up to 1991

As Im building a frameset from 1992 (as proved by serial number) I'm take 92 catalogue as consideration, which shows Icarius rather than old Euclid

This chain says is for 11 speed, so might be not for MTB right ? I will order only if I needed proper components

Campy used some of the same parts across different groupsets, these are what Tinker is using and the same as Euclid but are labelled Centaur which ran from '90 to '93. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Campagnolo-C ... SwxlJfiRWi

Exactly, great thks, these are 8 speeds as euclid ones posted by other member were / are only 7 speeds. Unfortunately they come from USA (I prefer EU) and have a lot of usage, and does not show speed numbers as the one of 7 speed. So I think I prefer mine Icarius, the one shown on official Klein 1992catelogue

You could also save a little more with lightweight jockey wheels, Ti stem bolt, inner tubes etc.

Out of interest were the Ringle and Bullseye hubs light back in the day?
