RBW worked on this beautiful Tommasini this weekend. It now has a nicely rebuilt freehub and a very functional and hip brass ping bell, located at the base of the stem.
Important note on ping bells: the ones with the striker arm are better than those with the striker spring. The striker spring will bounce around on rough surfaces and ring all by itself. The striker arm style can be easily controlled for volume.

Great job on the build. You and everyone who knows the history of this bike should be very pleased.
