Nagasawa, first NJS!

Posted on
  • I never knew about this thread till recently when I was asked to post my Panasonic Ti bike. The amount of useful feedbacks from this page is amazing, therefore here's my second post.

    Those who have known me (or my bikes) probably have realised that I've had a few Japanese bikes, but had NEVER built up a full NJS bike. The main reason was because, the process of finding parts is what I enjoy the most. But with NJS frames and parts, they are just readily there for purchase. As long as you are willing to pay, anyone can build up a damn beautiful bike! Don't get me wrong, I still love those builds, it's just me, I don't like getting things the easy way

    However, not having a Nagasawa, it just feels incomplete! Therefore, I've been secretly getting parts ready for this:

    This was posted in another forum before, but I've realised, I can get different build ideas from different forums based on location and culture, so... PLEASE KEEP THE FEEDBACKS FLOWING!

  • I want to differentiate this Nagasawa from all the great builds already out there, I had to find these for this build:

  • To make things a bit more different, instead of the obvious choice of Kashimax x Nagasawa saddle, I've gone with Titanium instead:

    Now.. waiting for the right rims, and all the rest.. WATCH THIS SPACE

  • Stunning mate. What rims are you going for out of interest? T

  • This is going to be good!

  • This is mad. Have you seen the nagasawa kashimax saddles from track supermarket? Could be an add on?

  • Can I put in a request for a "Kiddo's bikes" type thread showcasing your stable? Also, are your bikes typically all rideable or do they share components amongst them?

  • That seatpost is fucking nuts

  • Have you seen the nagasawa kashimax saddles from track supermarket?

    erm

    instead of the obvious choice of Kashimax x Nagasawa saddle

  • Thanks.
    Currently, I can't find anything else except the Araya Gold World Champion 16B NJS rims. I will probably go with these if I can't find anything else in the next couple of weeks.

  • Ah, thanks. I actually almost gone with this saddle! But end up getting the other one as there are too many builds with this saddle out there already.

  • Thanks for liking my bikes.
    I don't usually take apart my bikes once they are built in the exact way I intended (I've recently taken apart 2 bikes as I just didn't like it, waiting for more parts till I put them together again), so yes, most of my bikes are all readily rideable.
    I'll see what I can do with a post with my bikes, hopefully you won't get disappointed!

  • That's my favorite piece for sure!

  • Looks great.

    So how many nagasawa logos are there as of yet?

  • updates???

  • Found the build on Instagram:


  • that seatpin!

  • Man, such a shame! Black gums and cross front would of made this awesome. Also some better shots!
