Old Bridgestone frame, deepblue coated old Campa hubs, new Mavic rims, old Stronglight crank and some other old parts, like bar,stem, pedals.
Flite saddle with poc velour.
That`s it.

I guess the chex are a trademark thing eh? Elegant wheels.

I like pretty much everything on this bike…except the poc velour (does that stand for piece of crap?). Did that seat come from the factory like that or was it reupholstered?

Looks like a Hard and Fast ride. Nice.

Sorry guys – PORC – velour. The R on my PC make some stress. I do it myself, it`s easy to do, cause porcvelour is very flexible. If you glue it with “contactglue” – here in Germany it`s PATTEX or GRENIT. For the first try you let your saddle on the bike, so you can pull down the leather better around. Than you cut too much leather away – I use a scalpell – and glue with pulling and hard pressing the leather around the edges.
Ready – you can reactivate any old saddle – and if you want some comfort – glue a basic from soft material between.

Great build. I’d switch out the saddle for a white Turbo.

I actually like the PORC – velour saddle – it’s a good colour match to the frame.

i too am a fan of the saddle.

It’s a bit bright for the frame actually.

i fully agree with bob white turbo seat would complete this bike. Also not a fan of the white cages, chrome would look a lot better and not a fan of the checkers. Other then that really like this bike
