My lover. Headset is in bad condition, going to update it to a chris king. I Also would like to build classic looking tubular rims, maybe Ambrosio Cronos with Shimano DA hubs...

hmm, have u ever heard of Mapei? Sure they didn't use Shimano on their bikes and won, well, everything.
And besides, I like the shimano way of changing gears. It suits me better than campagnolo's #Mickey Mouse."
But yeah, I can see your point.
