Gios Super Record Devolution
When I purchased this ’80 Gios frameset nearly 10 years ago I built it up with with Campy Chorus/Record 10-speed from the parts bin and Fulcrum wheels — a step-up from the mish-mash of Shimano parts that came with it.
Earlier this week I finished returning the Gios to its vintage heritage — ‘80s Campagnolo Super Record. Before: After: I took it out for a shake down ride yesterday — have to regain the feel for down tube shifting, but it rides smooth and quiet. Only needed to tighten up the headset and adjust the rear break a touch. Purists might object to the SpeedPlay pedals, but oh well. I’m not giving up clipless pedals. Finally, a couple of forum shout-outs to: oldpotato - for building a marvelous set of wheels (H+Son TB14 rims/vintage Record hubs) — a good part of the reason for the smooth ride. veggieburger - for providing the final piece of the puzzle, a Campy SR 51T chainring. |

The frame will probably end up being a little small, but I wanted to get on (or off-) the road after a long time waiting. Joe Murray-era Kona Cinder Cone. Building with a wide range 1x10 Shimano drivetrain, XTR v-brakes, 2.1" Nanos on XT/Mavic wheels, and sweepy bars. Just needs a headset and a basket.

Well, last night I put this, new to me, Evan's Bike back together. Want to get some test rides in on it before I get the paint fixed and build it into it's final configuration.
