HANDLEBARS:
3ttt Record Competizione Superleggero - aluminum alloy with logo etching - traditional non-anatomic profile without cabling grooves - Merckx profile b ar bend - 26.0 mm Italian clamp sizing - 42 cm O-t-O / 130 mm reach / 170 m m drop - model Superleggero ... [Used - made from a special lightweight alu minum alloy, these bars feature a traditional Merckx profile and weigh in a t a mere 240 grams - hands down, the lightest traditional drop style racing handlebar available during the mid 1970's through early 1980\u2019s - I actua lly snapped these up not too long ago on eBay with a "Buy-It-Now" price sli ghtly higher than I am asking here (...they were advertised as NOS, but act ually turned out to be "take-offs" - sorry, but there is a difference in my book) - that said, these bars are in VERY good state with only minor evide nce of where they were once clamped into a stem - both logos and the center section which would be left unwrapped in near perfect state with ever so s light markings to be found on the underside that nobody sees anyway - the o nly reason I am selling these off is that I managed to acquire another set of Superleggero handlebars having a Gimondi profile (...my personal prefere nce) in a 44 cm width (...an even better fit for me)] - $35.00 plus S&H at cost
BOTTOM BRACKET:
O.M.A.S.

[NOS / NIB - similar to a Phil Wood unit in tha t the cups on both sides are adjustable meaning that one can fine tune thei r chain line - spindle sizing apropos a pre 1977/1978 non C.P.S.C. complian t Campy crankset or any number of clones thereof] - $60.00 plus S&H at cost
FRONT DERAILLEUR:
Campagnolo Record - 28.6 mm clamp-on - alloy body and hinged clamp with ste el cage - post 1967 without cable stop - post 1972 with enlarged pivot post housings - post 1972 with circlip on upper pivot - pre 1978 non C.P.S.C. " flat" style outer cage plate - model 1052/1 ... [Used - this is the very sa me lightly used unit that I offered for sale to the CR List back of Christm as eve having a faint hairline crack along the top inside connector between the inner and outer cage plates - I did not discover said crack until I ha d already begun to strip, clean, re-grease, and otherwise rebuild this comp onent in preparation for its use on a bike project of my own - at this poin t, I have used a judicious amount of JB Weld (...applied from the inside of the cage - and I defy anyone to notice its application in the pictures pos ted to WoolJersey) to remedy any weakness such that this derailleur should now be able to function properly for an untold number of miles - I am also offering an unconditional guarantee for a period of one year from purchase wherein I will agree to refund all monies exchanged, including shipping, up on return of the derailleur itself should it break, malfunction, or otherwi se fail to properly perform] - $30.00 plus S&H at cost

Weinmann brake levers - traditional non-aero cable routing - alloy bodies w ith color anodized "red dot" pivots - built-in quick release mechanism (... but NOT the 1960\u2019s style push button "red dot" release) - model "unknown" (...these do not appear in any of my Weinmann catalogs, although I do reme mber seeing these paired with Vainqueur brakesets in the 1970\u2019s - if anyo ne out there can provide an actual part number, I would be most appreciativ e) ... [Used - excellent condition with no noteworthy imperfections - these levers do not come with hoods \u2026 BUT \u2026 they do include the hard to find cable receptacles] - $25.00 for the pair plus S&H at cost
Dia-Compe brake lever hoods - gum - model 144.7 ... [Used - nice condition - still supple and without any nicks or cracks, but not necessarily "show b ike" material - suitable for use on traditional non-integrated brake levers employing a standard non-aero "out-the-top" cable routing - in addition to fitting several models of Dia-Compe and Grand Compe brake levers, these ma also be used in conjunction with a number of other manufacturer\u2019s offeri ngs as an economical alternative to their otherwise pricy "original" hoods] - $5.00 for the pair plus S&H at cost

Avocet - toe clips - size Large (65 mm long) - chrome plated steel - made i n Italy ...
