This is beyond beautiful! I love those Duell seat clusters, and the DT is fantastic.
Amazing

great respect towards the restoration on a rare frame w/ nice lugs & distinctive downtube/ seat binder areas. every piece seems passionately thought out & held to a very high degree. I normally dislike no grips, but the bars/bar ends/stem/seat post come together for nice aesthetic flow here.
the DA hub addition seems a bit distracting, & I'm not familiar w/ Tufo tires, so I can't comment on them, but curious if there's any specific reasons why they were chosen?

Thanks for the detailed comment!
The naked cockpit is temporary, already have the new B220 bars with strong V grips, matching color with the front hub - should be more appropriate.
The Tufos are lightweight (150g) and looking nice imo, almost like tubes. Its a decent brand, producing the most popular tires for track use mainly.
