I meant that compact bars would help to reduce the saddle to bar drop :) Deda piegas are cheap and come in 26mm diameter, I prefer them over track drops.

Yeah yeah I understood! You're right, compact bars are way more comfortable!
I'll have a nitto M186 soon... -

Hello from France, many many news here...
First, here is some better pics of the Samson :
Also, do you guys know some pedals and cages made for wide leather (doesn't fit well with my pair of Mks Custom Nuevo...)
Second frame that arrived at the same time as the Samson, a beautiful Makino with a Columbus max fork... I built it up with what I found but I'll soon do better. I swear.
And I also received a nitto jaguar 100 for my keeper, enjoy the result. Thanks again @Gaston for this amazing frame...

Yeaaah, now we're talking!

Yep I traded my pelizzoli against the makino and many parts and I bought the Samson apart from the trade

Wasn't sure for the rear wheel but it seems to look good

Oof it's a work of art, enjoy! Paul's a very good dude, rode with him a little bit when I was in Tokyo, probably one of the only people to have ever gone to jail for riding brakeless.

Thanks!
Will use it as a daily bike so I'll probably put a Riser on it! The actual bar is a nitto b123 njs
