I have thought about stripping this and selling for parts as it would be worth more but as i have taken so long to get her up to this level and she looks great, it is a shame to strip her.
From the point of view of the state of build and anything missing the following needs doing to finish her, about a hours work of someone competent's time.
>The rear brake needs fitting, both the 105 calipers (worth £20) are included one requires a retaining bolt, standard shimano and easily available.
One of the 105 shifters has its name cap missing, so I am including a pair of period RSX shifters (worth £50), the caps are the same and so one could be used to finish the 105 or they could both be swapped for the RSX's.
I also include a spare set of Italmanumbri Italia Pro bars worth about £20 (they happen to still be attached to the RSX's) which would make swapping easy
The bike will need cabling, gear and brake, not expensive if bought online, you can decide the quality.
the bike would only benefit from some modern tires
The wheels are lightly used but match the bikes look and spec well.
