Hi all,

I want to equip my recently purchased Speedwell with all the "trick" super-duper lightweight goodies of the period, but I'm not sure:

1) when the first OMAS bolt kits & TI stuff was available for sale, 2) when Regina TI freewheels & chains were first around, 3) when the Nisi 290 gm Sludi was first sold. 4) when was this Ideale saddle made, and what model is it? <duane.kennard.com/ideale/ideale1.jpg> <duane.kennard.com/ideale/ideale2.jpg>

I have all these parts gathered except the TI chain, and wonder if they'd be correct & proper on a '75 frame. Anyone know?? Thanks again gang! Cheers,
