Tour Bike Restoration - Stage 1, strip down
Parts aren't too bad, need new cables, pads and maybe jockey wheels.
Needs a new Campag Sigma rim if I want to match the rear, not sure if I'll be able to get any Wolber tubs! They have a schoolboy block on at the moment, but I have the 7sp 12-18!! Maillard block that they had on origanally, chainset is 52-40, I think the biggest we had on the back was a 25 sprocket!
The frame needs a respray and Peaugeot decals, as at some point it got resprayed with Rourkie decals! Before anyone asks it was a stock Peugeot frame from france, only a couple of riders on the team had there frames made in the UK
