Amici, A couple of people have expressed some interest in photos of my 1969 Atala Gran Prix. So here they are. Please note that the bike is not fully assembled and some of the parts you see in the photos are not original. So there are separate photos of the original TTT stem and Universal brake levers. So here's a bit of explanation. Both of the original derailleurs are Nuovo Record and you can easily find pictures of those elsewhere. The original hubs are high flange Campagnolo Record with straight handles on the quick release levers - again you will find photos of those elswhere. The original crankset _was_ from Magistroni with aluminum Simplex chainrings. Alas, it is no longer in my posession. The original rims were either Rigida or Fiamme. I get confused here because my brother's Gran Prix - one of the later, heavier ones - definitely had Fiamme rims. Anyway, the saddle was a Brooks B17. At least I can buy another one of those. So here's the URL for the photos: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/fred_rednor/album?.dir=baa2&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/ph//my_photos Oh, the seat post is this super-cool TTT thing that's made from aluminum alloy but weighs more that a Brooks clamp and straight alloy post! By the way, if for some reason you'd like higher resolution versions of the photos, please let me know and I'll send them off-list. Cheers, Fred Rednor - Arlington, Virginia (USA)
