Bottecchia rebuild, part 5: more parts...
Big thanks to Dale at the Velo for agreeing to sell some of the parts I needed for the rebuild effort. Saves me time having to search and bid on them elsewhere. Today I was able to pick up Cinelli stem and bars, Campag brake levers (minus hoods), and Campag rear derailleur. I put some Cinelli bar tape on, and only then realized I might need to adjust the levers; I kept the old blue tape on underneath, just for history's sake.

What year is your Bottecchia?
ReplyDeleteLove it looking forward to more.
Still have not been able to pin it's date down. Was told 70s when I bought it, which seemed reasonable. But since then I have heard as early as 50s. I am still inclined to believe somewhere in the range of the late 60s to 70s.
