Congrats OP!

Seems you got a real deal there! Can't help you with the BB I'm afraid but I hope you enjoy yours as much as I love mine!!

Congrats on the great find! I have the same model (albeit repainted by now) and as far as I remember I just installed a basic normal Campa BB guide - I might have to have cut a bit of the guide for the front derailleur as it didn’t fit in the short internal tube behind the BB.

Look used to have some information on their website, but I think it is all gone now. I'm shocked that no one has put together a simple enthusiast page.

When information was more current in my head, I thought mine was a 2007 (replacement fork). This is a few years ago, after I just put it together...

pretty sure that wasn't available in 2017. did you mean to type 2007?

I built mine which looks the same as your frame in April 2005

Yup--fixed it

Only because I had that 585 clear-over-weave and graphic theme around 2005 -2007 and it rode great!!! Then a bike shop cracked the seat tube in a stand.

Crushed; frame(lit)/me(figuratively).

They were cool about it and got me a new one from LOOK asap. I was fortunate in that they were still available at the time of crushification.

I kinda want a back up.

I crashed into a kangaroo a few weeks ago on my 585, snapped one arm of the fork clear off. The frame looks OK but I wouldn't trust it. This is very sad. Wish I had a backup.

2007 or 2008 pro-team white, size small.
