Hello Doland,

OMAS and GIPIEMME come to mind as high quality alternatives to Campagnolo.

I think it would be interesting to build a '70s style, 2nd tier all italian race bike, but have no clue what that would be. Something a regular Joe (or is that Guiseppe?) in Italy would race on the weekends, sort of a modern day equivalent to a Cannondale with Shimano Ultegra.
