Designed for classic road setups, this frame requires specific vintage components to complete a period-correct build. To outfit the front end of this classic frame, pairing it with a period-appropriate drivetrain part like a classic Shimano Dura-Ace Vintage Front Derailleur ensures aesthetic and mechanical harmony.
