Title pretty much says it. I used to ride my Dad's Motobecane he built in the 70s. I bought a new scott s-20 a few months back and now the motobecane is just sitting there. I would like to use Campy stuff as that is what I am told it originally had...My dad said that he took it all off to sell because he needed money to buy a certain piece of jewlery for my mom...lol. Man if only he kept it all on there.....
Anyway--back to reality--I was thinking of making this a commuter bike so I can still use it. I'm not sure exactly what all I should change. Basically everything is still the same as the late 70s when he last changed everything.
I was thinking of getting the following:
New chain
New cables
I'll have to track down new pads
most likely new wheels
I want to keep it as original as possible. I beleive the brakes are Wipperman? (If anyone knows where I can get new pads please let me know)
What is everyone's suggestions as far as parts I should upgrade and also suggestions for each of those parts?
Thanks in advance for all of your help!
