New Triple

After 13 years, my venerable Kestrel 200SCI got a new drive train. I found a Campagnolo Record Triple Crankset for half price on eBay. Got a new Centaur Long cage rear derailleur on eBay as well. New front derailleur, new chain, and new rear cog. From 53-39 to 53-42-30/13-26.

New life for a trusty bike.
