Spill the beans!Something came along in the way of period correct drivetrain and wheelset, so the Diabolo hubs and Suntour shifters are going back to the spares bin.
Tomorrow the BB will be fitted by a local bike shop, once that is done the build process can begin in earnest.

YUM!
The set that was for sale on here? Great score.
It's gonna be amazing on this bike, too.
Can't wait to see it!
Always wanted to try those Mavic shifters... they look so cool.

and this bike is worthy of it. Ta!

remember this started out as a dropbar consideration,
Maybe some fuel for it, but then again its a pinnacle here

Mine is still on hold, drops are still the plan but struggling to decide on the rest of the build, definitely not going to use the Mavic group, would like something more period correct that would suit the Roller cams, but then again part of me just wants to raid the parts bin and get it rolling.
Also wavering on the finish, tempted to try to do that myself whether polished or painted, although raw aluminium still appeals, it just seems a shame to have this blank canvas and do nothing with it.
We'll see.
