DA 7800 FDs and RDs - some of the most beautiful components ever made in my opinion. One pair will go on a Waterford 1200

Hands down I think 7800 is the nicest 'modern' groupset ever made.....and I don't consider myself a retro-grouch or anything, I have di2 on my main bike. But 7800 was so nice.
I say 'modern', cause at least for nicest -looking- groupset ever, I still have to go with the C-Record/Delta's group I had in the early 90's (from bike nashbar! )

7800 was my favorite also - It would just seem to disappear when riding.......

VERY nice hubs..you got a GREAT deal...

BikinGreen 46/30 110BCD rings arrived. Waiting for a mid-cage rear derailleur to get here before I adjust that front derailleur height

Won't be able to try them out until my Paul brakes arrive. Going on like 4 weeks since ordered? US > Canada shipping is a real grind at the moment.

Yep, I love the gray-silver finish of that generation that you don't find on any other groupset anymore.

On the way, a SBC 6061 Black Label All-Road, copper brown frameset. I’ve been so impressed with the SBC 7005 Undefeated I built up last month, why not try another frameset from SBC for my first all-road/gravel build.

That derailleur looks massive! Like a transformer or something

Chain also looks a little short or the b-limit needs some love. Other than that welcome to a wireless life!

Picked up some cable supplies to re-cable the '84 Prestige. Need to make a decision on handlebar tape next before I do the brakes.
