Got this Galmozzi in a few weeks ago. Just got decals to finish it up.
I've been shopping for a Galmozzi for awhile now. This one showed up on Ebay and appeared to be an unmolested early 70s Galmozzi.
1973 Galmozzi in original condition with what I believe are mostly components installed by the original owner. Full Campagnolo Nuovo Record/Record build with Cinelli stem, bars and seat, Regina chain and freewheel, Rigida clincher rims. Rear derailleur is Patent 72, front derailleur is correct for year, wheel locknuts are 72 date code, no date code on crankset, etc.

Since a frame like this deserves a top notch build I tried to source everything as period correct as I could. Luckily I already had most of the components. I used:
