Lovely bike!
It is lovely. It's in bits at the moment - I used it as an all-weather commuter for a while and nearly destroyed it. I've got the rust under control but have decided to box it up and send it off for painting. The stickers I got off nearly 100% complete and am in the process of having them remade.
The stem is Italmanubri, 3TTT Ergo bars, campy BB.
I have a new white Rolls for it, will put the 8 speed ergo stuff back on but replaced the dura-ace headset and brakes with campag I think. Not original, but I love the 8 speed ergo levers. I've got a set of gold anodised Super Champion singles with mavic hubs and a screw-on 8 speed Sachs cluster with the right spacing for campy ergo and I intend to use it for...crit racing

Alternatively some Gipiemme Parades that just aren't stiff enough for my carbon bike but are OK for a bit of fun in a short race.
The only thing on it that was a bit rubbish were the cranks - Sugino Mighty Road. I've put those on the Repco Olympic 12 and am going to go non-retro with a set of carbon cranks and a carbon seatpost. I know it sounds a bit weird but it looks so much like a Colnago Master that making a cut-price version is irresistable.
I've had no luck with Europa - they didn't respond to me when I asked them what it was made of, although according to the canberra bicycle museum site it's one of theirs, and was probably fitted out with Shimano gear when new.
