Wow, even looks better with Campagnolo 12 speed. Though I should wrap the handlebar tape wrong way. Start at the top and end at the barend plugs. It looks so much better. And if you replace it once a year you don't wrap it over the other layer with your hands.
I saw a video where Victor's Campenarts mechanic wraps handlebars [urlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3o_90bCWLU]from the top[/url]. Quite intresting technique but to be honest I'm not sure what's the reasoning behind. Is it just to get a clean cut on the top?

I realized that now I care about look and feel more so I replaced superleggero stem with superzero.

Of course a bit of acetone and polishing was needed to make logos less bold

Even though the headset was in a good shape it was too accented to my taste

Ok here is the final rezult
