I have an opportunity to buy a 1999 bike with Veloce components at a
reasonably low price. My plans are to strip the components and install
them on a early 1990's vintage Colnago. Are there any major obstacles to
look out for? Are repair parts readily available for that year's
components? Is there any compatability issues with Veloce components
through the past 6 years? Thanks, Ed

May have to 'cold set' the rear triangle to 130mm and the BB shell for
the Colnago is Italian. 1999 9s veloce is like 2005 10s veloce,
Everything current will work with that gruppo. 9s cogsets and chains
are plentiful. If ya ever want to convert the lever to 10s, that is
easy as well.
