romet super + romet super lo pro

It's a long term project of building two track bikes on a Polish Romet Super frames:

1. Romet Super 56x56 Columbus SL
   and
   
2. Romet Super 56 Lo-Pro (just bought it i don't have any photos yet).
   
   

1.

New Paint soon.

Primer and first layer is on

Nice! I'm following.

two bikes at the same time, that's quite admirable. it took me a whole year just to get to a decision to start one project. i look forward to seeing the progress.

yeah, and i have to sell my two complete builds to finish these one's. pinarello asolo full sh600 and other romet super track 54x54. otherwise these two romet's will go on forever.

meanwhile

i have to sand it a bit, and put another layer of paint.

thinking about decals. what to choose, decals or go with template + paint?

Whens the lo pro arriving??

Love a matching pair of bikes

finally paint is done, chrom-like decals as it was originally
soon i'll post lo pro, unfortunaltelly with ugly fork. i'll try upload it tommorow.

stop saying that this chrome decals are'original' please

ok.

ok, so here is lo pro. because of lack of time pictures are lousy, sorry.
i have a problem with this fork, it's from the set, but it's ugly as shit. thinking of changing it for lugged one, similar to green one.

erm, that fork is awesome, don't change it.

I like the forks too! Very original.

You think? But i want twins! ;) I'll think abut it.

fork has a very crude aesthetic, i too like it. keep as is vote #3

Yes - keep the fork. I've never seen one like that. Very brutal!
Something that size has got to dampen lots of road vibration.

so, the idea is to made italian equipped "sprint" and japan "pursuit". miche group from my old bike is on the place for sprint, i need handlebars and seatpost for this one. dura ace hubs, kyokuto pedals, tange cds and sugino 75 cranks are waiting for new paint in lopro.

next week probably.

that lo pro is going to be awesome, wish i could stumble on stuff like this

almost done. cinelli 65-40 handlebars and 1E stem that's what i need.

Looks good

The fork on the pursuit Super is original, keep it. There was also a version with handlebar mount welded to the crown.
Green frame looks cool paintjob-wise, but that's about it. Decals are okay.

So, it's original but ugly, i really don't like it. If i could i will change it for sth classic.

Meanwhile waiting for a aero chainring for sugino 75. In January i think both will be near the end. I've changed deep-v's for some araya sa 730, that lo pro will be really nice bike.

vote #4 for the lo pro fork ;)

c'mon guys, really?
i'll consider it, in march both must be completed, so there is time to think about it (or look for a new fork).

+1 vote for current lo pro fork.

Have you built the non-lo pro up yet, looks beaut, actually really like the chrome decals I think
