All,
This Colnago interests me. Thanks for the ID on the wheel set--they do indeed look like Normandy/Rigida. Given its a college town, someone probably swapped to clinchers for budget reasons...
I have never tackled a restoration of a bike with that kind of deterioration and rusting, especially on all the small Campy bits--screws, nuts, etc.
Is there a good method for restoring these small parts? Or are you likely to end up on the hunt for replacements in better condition?
Thanks,
Dean Kernan
