I think this bike was raced at some point. Because why go for the UCI legal version of the Mektronic shifters if it wasn't to use it at sanctioned races.
Then the cracked steerer : either a fall or just too much stress on the tube. It hints at an intense use.
Except for the wheels, the parts chosen were all pretty high quality.
The plan was to throw the Mektronic groupo on my Peugeot, but I still haven't found the time to test the parts properly and give them the green light so right they might stay on the Ciocc a bit longer. The time for me to see everything working perfectly (I've been able to make the shifting work but sometimes it glitches).

It never crossed my mind to be honest.
I bought it because it came with a HT and for the Mektronic groupo.
And because at the moment I have access to a TIG, I thought I'll try to repair it.
I don't really care if it's a messy job and I certainly don't have the money right now to send it back to Italy to Ciocc.
