@negaatio I like it! Despite garish headset and fugly lights :)

@amey that's excellent.

Aww. Look at it's ickle wheels.

Even the twatty filter can't hide the fact this is going to be ace.

I even approve of the mtb gearing (it's a winter bike – stay aerobic innit). Hell I even approve of the bar tape, it'll look more-pink-than-red once it's on and match the headset/seat-collar well enough.

650b, lol.

Ha! Yeah this too.

Just buy this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-REVOLVER-700C-DISC-WHEEL-COVER-CAMPAGNOLO-RECORD-DURA-ACE-600-105-ULTEGRA-/141512141555?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item20f2c7eaf3

and laugh at all the roadies you pass along the way..

With smaller wheel, 11-32 will be pretty spinny, the 11-28 is a much better range to go for.

I'm on 34x28 as my lowest gear.

I've got to do 2800m of climbing with luggage tomorrow so I'll let you know how that goes.

;-)

Goddamn MAMIL.

Changed a couple of things to my Alain Michel:

Fitted a Suntour superbe pro crankset along with a 50t Zen c'ring (thanks @Thomas63), an Extra 18t sprocket and replaced the rear rim with a "Faux-ra" (a Corima aero rim, with Bora decals).

More pics here for those interested:

Gets better. Go directly to HHSB etc... #dutty

The tape is £3.95 so dont mind a bit of 'adventure'; 11-32 because I want to see how it feels like on this bike; I have 12-25 on the rest of the bikes.

Also 3 Rychtarskis on previous page.

I've changed the tyres and stem since this pic but

@amey

Nice work, actually looks like that frame was built to use 650 and big tyred wheels.

So much radness happening !!nice keep em coming

Don't clamp on the frame, always seatpost. Especially with exotic stuff and carbon. I've seen too many get mangled, especially when you have to start beating/ drilling.

@amey nice. hoods look HUGE on it!

please rad this up. ano everything.

More of this please! What's the year of production?

Quick build up with parts from my eimei
