A mostly track bike diary.. [ currently 83 Bianchi Super Pista, Concorde, Derosa etc]

looking good!

Had replaced the Nitto stem for a LOOK titanium, much more flex, not sure about the result..

now

Also another project is on the way..

Hadn't own a decent Lopro since a while, convincing myself that a vintage pursuit bike is useless for street, but I was feeling a lack at the same time.

Then I had the opportunity to trade this, and well, I couldn't resist..

Great thing is that it's a 700/700, and it's disco !

Unknow framebuilder, probably a club schem paintjob but doesn't have other info..

-Super Vitus GTI tubing, filet brazed
-French threaded (looking for a decent 22mm stem if anybody had one laying around..)
-Tight clearances

Delta's lower headset cup is fucked up, had one spare in my part bin

Plan is to build it with Stronlight Delta headset/seatpost/crankset, Mavic stem, Reydel GTI saddle, not decided about the cockpit yet..

Did you trade it for a cinelli laser? ;)
Great frame tho, love the colours and geo. Needs a concor sprint to match the paintjob.

P.s. from my own experience with 22mm french steerertubes: nitto njs fits or you can sand-down a 22.2 stem.

Do you have a link to where you bought the bars on the somec and mash? I'm after something similar myself!

Nice, you got it! went to a good home, enjoy it! Dips if you ever want to get rid of it ;)

@Sig_Arlecchino against a SG75 crankset..

Stem problem is resolved, I've just found a decent one is my stock parts !

@ltc It's just a cheap generic riser, got it from a Canadian parts distributor called Cycles Babac

@a-dam noticed ;)

A bit of work done:

-Lower cup had been replaced by another one in very good condition, and black ano removed from the spacer, headset had been fully serviced at the same time.

-Mavic 22mm stem and bars installed

-Stronlight Delta seatpost

-Disco matchy saddle and bar tape found..

Delta crank need a 113mm BB (believing catalog) but I hope that the old adjustable 116mm Mavic 610 will do the trick..

Temporary finished

Awesome

Fantastic, the wheel set is so nice. Not a fan of the saddle if I’m honest, but I’m a sucker for black.

@dazzriethis wheelset is nice, but I've got some Mavic track hubs waiting for rims..

I personally love the saddle, more pictures..

HHSPorn!

Damn, that's tight!

Any more details on the way the handlebar tape is finished with those plastic shells?

Beautiful. Did you cut a chamfer for the 610?

This is the first lo pro i've ever liked, so nice!

@Tijs the plastic shell came with the bar tape, which is a vintage Selev..
I like it. It's clean..

@matteroftaste yes, got the proper Mavic chamfer tool..

I'm not a sucker for those "black fixi" but I have to admit that this wheelset fit nicely this one..

Does black bike matter for once ?

Can't complain about Thomson bits..

Ninja's grips & crankset

Line up..

Had these two laying around, is that enough to justify a new frame ? NJS ?

Just give me the chainring.....
Thank you

What model are the Rigida rims on the Brooklyn on the previous page please?

Brooklyn is very good.

Is the seatpost rotated 180 degrees so it's in line with the stem logo being upside down? That's attention to detail. Don't forget the stem front plate in that case!

Deffo one of the most sleek looking BMW's I've ever seen.

@Thomas63

@beetletype25 Rigida SHC 500 if I remember well

@Tijs @vp1337 thx, I think I'm done with this one..

gangsta looks very clean dude

Pub bike improvement

-Sachs NS crank
-Shim 600 pedals
-Mavic chamfer BB
-New seat bolt

ride surprisingly smooth, still need stickers/fenders

Gonna have a new project soon, a little roadie based on 1'inch steel frameset.
