Rossin Flâneur road semi custom

So, where are these pics?

I have completely forgotten to update this topic.

Nice Rossin Prestige you had. You already had it setup? not seeing any update of it

ok sorry sae it already
too bad the frame paint work had to go to become like that

Would like some more photos of that, it looks mint!

Dredged a thread to fling some shit. Good work.

I actually came to like the scarred paint quite a lot. You still see the typical red->yellow->white Rossin fade, but the bare headtube shows the new fillets tells the story and is contrasted nicely by the new shiny components.

You and me both. While I have improved my architecture photography skills from useless to mediocre I still suck at bike photography

Never seen one like this before...

This is now with CK hubs and slightly longer stem.

Spot on, nice work. Love the stripped paint somehow.

but how does it ride?

Beautifully, thank you.
Thanks to my deep research, brillant math skills and sheer luck the fit is spot on I think.
We steepened the hta by about a degree and that makes for a nice lively feeling.
It does have a slight rattle though, that I haven't located yet. I think it's from the front end. I ha en't noticed it before.

Looking at the photos now it looks like the bar could be rotated a bit forward so will look into that, it feels fine as is though.

I keep thinking about having it painted but I always come back to keeping the paint ratty.

Yup. Bars down, levers up a tad and redo bartape :)

Absolutely love this. A few years back I had a similar idea but never found a suitable steel beauty with damaged head tube. Really liking the exposed ratty front end.

Gorgeous!

Thank you.
I wish i had taken the big camera and taken some better photos together with some close ups. But it's so rare that I get a chance to ride that I actually only wanted to ride.
