Seat Stay Detail: M is the only letter left.
Classy Marinoni!
Nuovo Record parts stripped!
Forza!
I pull out the new 2011 Veloce rear derailleur.
Back from Terrebonne, QC,
Eye catching medium blue...
the New Look!
The mechanic said my 25 year old chrome fork is in excellent shape.
It's going back to work!
Lightweight & Ready to Roll...
The new 2011 Campagnolo Khamsin wheelset with Veloce 12-25 sprocket set and
Cadence Clinchers.
I originally asked for my initials...
But Simone Marinoni (Giuseppi's wife) decided to airbrush my name in full!
You can't argue with this woman!
At this point,
I didn't realize they shipped me the compact groupset by mistake!
Test Drive...
my heart's beating a mile a minute!
Excited, going home
with a my new 1987 Marinoni!
A good idea to have it professionally photographed by my friend,
Hans in his studio.
On top of the 'Operating Table'.
Because you just gotta get it ...right!
Classy Touch...
Marinoni added his signature!
Force of Habit...
I kept my Nuovo Record Headset, Cinelli 1A stem &
66-40 Campione del Mondo bars.
Details, details, details...
I love the added Maple Leaf &
Marinoni scripts!
Complete with the Veloce Standard PT Crankset,
170mm 53/39 with an addition of seat tube water bottle braze ons (a must have)!
My Marinoni Smile...
My first ride to Pt. Moody with Guy!
My New 1987 Columbus SL Marinoni ...Italian Stallion!
Hearty Thanks to all involved in my project!
