I'm almost done putting the Pegoretti back together. Here she is with the wheels I built courtesy of a complete wheel kit from Look585.

Pegoretti Marcelo (https://flic.kr/s/aHsmfQAVAy)

I just need to add pedals and she'll be ready to ride again.

Moved. That's a really nice peg-O and the wheels suit it well.

Someday I will own a Marcelo. Well done.

Thanks! I've had a lot of fun riding this one. It started out life as a custom single color Peg ordered through Cycles by Kyle. Then Joe Vasquez did the repaint a number of years ago. I agree that these wheels are a perfect fit. I'll need to replace the bar tape eventually but it's fine for now.

Very good. I like the blue headset and seatpost collar you added too; nice subtle touch.

Of course you already made the best decision with the veloflex tires.
