  • Finally got myself a proper track frame to replace the Ribble (now a full on winter bike).

    To change: aero shiny black seatpost, maybe a turbo, gonna try out bullhorns / a longer stem, black front brake... not sure which one, something not too chunky, suggestions welcome.

    The wheels are literally exactly what I want: gun metal grey Open Pro's on Formula hubs with double butted Sapim spokes. Rear has never seen a brake and they look sick.

    Frame is bangin. The shape and rake of the forks is beautiful and the paint is perfectly ratty and fluro. It's not a Nag, but I'm inclined to leave the decals as it'd look a bit naked and generic without them. Suggestions for replacement decals are welcome... I know it's 531 but that's about it.

    Just back from a spin round Richmond with a big smile on my face.

  • I suppose there's no serial on it?

    Fork and steel suggest late 70/early 80s UK builder to me. Anyhoo looks like quality enjoy ^_^

  • I think the Colnago decals look a bit naff because of the way the are positioned - maybe try some Condor decals or similar?
