Anyone got any spec of the old Splendor team bikes?

I can't help directly, I'm afraid, but below is a site for the Belgian
framebuilders Vaneenooghe, who say they built the frames
for Splendor (among others) in the 1970s and 1980s. Maybe they can help?

Most people in Belgium speak good English, so you could try mailing them
(via the link 'contactformulier'). If you want me to translate a short message into Flemish, let me know.

If you're looking for the overall spec. I would imagine they would have been fitted with whatever was flavour of the time Campag. However, they were associated with different trade teams so it might depend on that. Need to look back through old magazines of the periods (International Cycle Sport, Winning?) involved and check out photos.

Another good excuse (sorry, reason) to dig old mags out and have a browse

Probably Ned but for the sake of an accurate restoration.....Would be great if you come across any details.

Pictures added to op.
