I'd say anything you can't buy anymore or Is hard to find 2nd hand that used to make weight weenies smile but maybe the usual cyclist wouldn't quite recognise as being a little bit special

Oooo how about the LEW racing vt wheels?
I've actually got one where a spoke pulled through which I turned into a mirror

Then I should include in the list that I just bought a NOS Itm 101 classic shape handlebar.
Being an old Deda Newton shallow addicted, it's hard to pass a 170 gramms bar in similar shape.

Not sure if « best » but ultra exotic,
Le Crew titanium crankset, and carbon stem. Fun to see how thick the Carbon was compared to Darimo products.

I saw the crankset in real, the stem only on magasines and not sure it really went production.

can we add AX ultra 55T to the list. i think there are still couple of shops that sell them on ebay, but im pretty sure they are old stock. but for 55mm.....boy, those are light. and of course quite ahead of its time by licensing zipp 404fc u-shape rim.

This. For me, hands down the coolest component of the 90s.

Stronglight pulsion crank

My 52/42/30 triple (with re-bonded threaded inserts for the granny ring):

I would need to take some pics but I'd also add the original American Classic 350 Sprint wheels (non-machined brake track). Had them on the same LOOK KG386i as those Stronglight cranks.

Found some:
