Very nice!
But part of me would love to see some period-esque wheels on it

Very Nice !
You know back when that bike was being raced it was my fav bike!
I use to drool over them when ever I saw one in Winning magazine.
I loved it & seeing yours reminds me of why. Such a beautiful bike..
Thanks for the memory...beautiful bike you have there... Really kind of cool to see one modernized with ergo shift, new era seat & pedals
PS: here is yours....All you need is the image location ( right click your pic & copy then paste here between the img-code )
At the time when I was drooling 1980's.....I was riding this Masi .....Actually with record pedals/toe clips for a couple years before I switched to Look's

Just get some low profile wheels and it's gonna be a cool ride.

Yes, it needs low profile wheels to be a period bike. Then weigh it for us!
