Who knew? Not me.

It's been a long time since I've sought out any Campagnolo parts. But now that I'm transferring my old group from a Cannondale frame I no longer ride to my custom Evans frame, I still didn't really look. I just figured the old stuff was no more. 

I needed brake and shift cables for the build and I asked Dale to order a set of anything. She pulls up a complete NEW package of Campagnolo cables, housings, ferrules, and ends!

I dragged my feet a little, trying to rationalize cheap stuff. Dale slid my original brake levers toward me, with the new Campy hoods she'd found for them giving me her "seriously?" look. 

Then she also found brand new Campagnolo brake pads: black, old school, CAMPAGNOLO block lettering. I've only had 2 or maybe 3 sets of those pads in my entire life. (Those who've seen my videos can attest that I don't brake too much.)

Thanks Honey.
