Beautiful bike Kevin... it just doesn't get any better than that!

One improvement? The stock Campagnolo cable housing for routing derailleur cables at the bottom bracket was the bare, spiral-wound stainless steel housing. I think it would look a lot better than the non original plastic covered brake cable housing on your bike. Same with the rear derailleur cable housing into the derailleur.

The bare stainless would look killer with all that chrome! I always shove a plastic liner into the bare stainless steel housing to make the cables slide smoother.

Stunning bike!!!
