Probably on the higher end of the scale. Looks like it’s had very little use so at least that’s in your favour. Downside is that 10 speed Campag doesn’t give you many options for wide-range cassettes that are typical on endurance bikes now, the tyre clearance looks narrow and the Power Torque cranksets require special tools if you want to change crankset.
Anyways, if you’ve bought it and you like it, get out there and ride it!
Perhaps I’m ignorant here, but what’s with that pie plate? Is that a permanent spoke saver?
That’s a sweet ride. Good purchase. Those cranks are long for a 53 though
