I found the bike originally from a market in Brussels. It was in a bit shit state and had the ugliest stem I'd seen in a while.
With some TLC (OK, some of it less tender as I had to saw off the stuck seat post) it became a rather usable vintage road bike. I rode it to Dunwich last summer but can't find any proper pictures of it in this stage.
Now I decided I need to get my first fixie. So. I rebuilt the rear wheel and I'm actually quite happy with the result.
(Yes, that is a cat's arse)
andddddd here we are!
I might need to saw the stem a bit shorter at some point, there is no space to get it on the ideal height now. Also, needs some lightning bolt shaped reflectors on the spokes but I can't find them anywhere :(
Most of it is second hand stuff.
