Hi!
I just bought a titanium speedwell bike, with a full nuovo record groupset. My plan is to make this my main bike, for year-round commuting here in Stockholm Sweden.
But, given its age, historical and monetary value, I am a bit worried it is a waste of a classic.
Would it withstand such a use, or should I just stick to my boring specialized and keep the speedwell for sunny summer days?
Attached is what it looks like now, I'll swap the bars for drops and add a front rack, otherwise keeping it original.
If any Swedes are reading this, here's some more info on it: http://www.cykelhobby.com/executive.htm
