*Sora cranks with Tiagra chainrings
*Square taper BB (alas not very smooth after being used for CX)
*Old 8 spd. cassette and chain (I'll be inspecting them)
*Dura Ace 8 spd. bar end shifters
*Bullhorn bars
*Saddle
*Sora front derailleur
*A-Class ALX300 "training wheels" from road bike
*Cane Creek 200SL calipers
*TT brake levers

Just needing to get:

*Shimano freehub body for wheels (currently Campy body)
*Short (90mm) stem (Kalloy Guizzo)
*Zero set back seatpost (Kalloy Guizzo)
*Aero clip-ons (Profile Design T2+)
*Mount for one of the bar-ends
*Sora rear derailleur (Ebay)
