Imagine that someone just gave you a 1965 cinelli SC and you want to take it out for a ride. However, the bike is totally NOS. What would you change on the bike to go out riding ? What would you add to the bike to protect the finish ??

I have some ideas but I'm not too experienced in this area, and I'd like to know what "wear items" people replace right away, and save for "special rides", "shows", or whatnot ...

Thanx,
