Photo 30 Apr 1 note Campagnolo Record front brake caliper. My appreciation of these vintage components is more for their aesthetic qualities than their functionality. They certainly work perfectly well - and no one will ever convince me that there’s anything better than a good steel frame - but when it comes to fiddly parts like gears then the modern stuff wins hands down. But they just don’t look as good!
