I doubt it's a vitus project

Here's my new project or the first step of my project.

Still needs wheels, longer stem etc.

Wonder if it's actually a vitus or not?
Will post more close up photos of the frame to ask around.
All I can tell now is that it's got an EVEREST lug (bottom bracket)
and, obviously, vitus stickers all around.
Also it has an extremely thin top tube...
That fork is not original. Obviously.

That helmet is place specific. It only appears when that sign is present.
It translates as "access restricted! falling peaces of balconies."

Yeah, how lucky is that! It's got a 30mm rake, so the trail is just right.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
