More Info:
Specs are based of my research and to the best of my knowledge!
Due well known Campagnolo 'habit' to downgrade its components after a few years in production, making todays Record groupset for example - tomorrows Chorus (and further down the line in their hierarchy) it's very difficult to claim for sure which component belongs to what group without knowing exact year of production, so I apologize for any mistakes I might have made.

There aren't words to express how envious I am of you. I just passed up an SLX pinarello becuase it was a bit too small :(
CONGRATS on a gorgeous bike!

:) If that'll make it easier for you, this one is way too small for me as well, but I just couldn't pass up this one cause they're really hard to find here in my country, I just had to go for it! :)

Everything just clicked in, even Shamal decals color matched the one of the frame! :)

ques_one says:
I have the exact same gruppo on my Somec Supercorsa (minus the Shamals, but with Record hubs/ Mavic Ceramic rims).
There's something special in those mid-90ies componentry, maybe because they somehow mark the line between "old school" and "modern" bikes. Stunning build anyways!
