Rossin Pista(s) by Josbanse

What is it with your obsession with Rossin?

I just like rossins so best to stick with those :)

New decals for the rossin. Hopefully I am building it to some state tomorrow

Tried on some parts also:

Waiting for nice drop bars suitable for street. Maybe cinelli champione del mondo

I love this thread, so much hip hop. Props for #savingthetrackbike

Sooo effin awesome... 100% would ride!

Thanks guys, I just like to build some bikes every now and then.

I miss having a nice track bike I ride everyday... my current one is a heap... if you ever have. a 54 for sale drop me a PM...

Heaps are cool

I have a couple of pictures of my recent builds. Just a heads up that I could be selling the blue or the pink frame for a right price. I am kinda collecting money for a future special project. I'd prefer selling the blue rossin as it's actually not period correct for the C-record groupset and I'm looking for a newer frame for that gruppo.

So whats up with the bikes then? Let me tell.

The pink one got a gipimme bearings + cranks. Wheels are campy Super record pista with mavic clinchers and the seatpost is gipiemme. At the cockpit there's a 3ttt chromix and carbon risers. After the photo the bike has been stripped for super record pista groupset installation.

For the blue one it got a more stylish wheels (in my opinion) as in the form of sheriff star + mavic rims. I liked the carbon tubulars at first but those rims were a bit bulky and not vintage so not really my cup of tea afterall. Pics of the blue with both wheel opinions so you can strike me down. Anyways the carbon rimmed wheels are sold so no can do for that matter :D

All the pics are links to my flickr for more content. Both frames are 56cm ish (blue 55,5cm) and the pink one has a rediculous 79 degree head angle... shit.. :P

Steep HT angle on the pink one indeed!
Strange trackend angle also

What size is the Blue one? 54?

Both frames are 56cm ish (blue 55,5cm)

Phew... too big... need 54cm max really.

Yeah the pink is 56c-c both ways but the steep head angle means that the reach of the frame is a bit bigger than with for example 75degree head tube. I'd say the pink one lengthwise would be almost the same as basic trackbike with 57cm top tub.

The blue one is 55,5c-c both ways so 0.5cm smaller than the pink one. Head tube ofcourse in the basic 75degree area.

@Shame what do you mean with the trackend angle? The smaller BB drop? The track forkends are horizontal but the wheel is not slammed exactly.
