^the fuck whAT

My thoughts exactly.... Head cannot take it...

That Willier is a beast.

hell yeah, nice piece of kit.

not wishing to cause alarm and panic but you could always fret about a tube/lug parting company on a 25year old frame due to the apprentice brazing it on a monday morning after a heavy weekend.
he may have got his mitering wrong? forgot to use flux? used too much heat? not enough filler metal?

With respect, I'm very confident about anything that's been ridden regularly for the last 25 years, more so than something that's just rolled off the production line, because it's already been tested numerous times and is still going strong. Logic innit.

I really want this to be my next geared bike.

Nah. Gotta be this...

^white is too slow. Needs to be red. Or black.

evidently the c40 is the one to go for? (according to bike journo's i know)

Wonder what happened to this...

These are my geared bikes;]

The Wilier Triestina looks chuffing nice, would love one of those frames.

25 years worth of time to collect damage, rust, fatigue...

I have 4 geared bikes and one fixed.

1. Raleigh Superbe with a Sturmey Archer 4 speed dyno-hub.
   
2. Raleigh Chopper with a Sturmey Archer 3 speed.
   
3. Harry Quinn Crusader with a 7 speed Shimano Nexus coaster hub (formerly fixed-wheel)
   
4. Steve Goff 753 road bike with C-Record/Chorus 8 speed derailleur.
   

evidently the c40 is the one to go for? (according to bike journo's i know)

why is there a question mark there when it isn't a question, are you Australian?

Future anti-porn :)

because i'm not 100% confident with my statement. in hindsight i should have used 'AFAIK' or some other disclaimer.

Future Fast-as-Fuckness!! :)

Repaired

I have a giant scr1 and a specialized globe sport disc converted to drop bars.

just getting into fixed gears and I have a cheap one built on an old frame, but I am already looking for my next!

my brain is melting

That looks absolutely stunning with that respray and that build. I'm not sure I've ever seen a Corima (I am right in thinking that aren't I?) with a road build and it is beautiful.

I have a SLX Olmo with Centaur 10 speed components except for the early 90's Chorus cranks, owned for 6 years. Absolutely love it, but never ride it any more. Will I get rid of it? No I bloody won't!

The latest bike is a 2006 Colnago Dream which I've owned for 7 months. Have added a Chorus carbon seatpost since this pic, and have a set of Record Hubs waiting to go on, they are currently being build by the forum's very own Arup.

That Corima Puma is nice. I love them and the Cougar frame.
I'm building a full carbon geared bike up next, or Ti, depends how rich I'm feeling.

Nah, doesn't wash hippy, just like you ;p

Any excuse to post my pride and joy...

Why isn't "why" capitalised? Are you another Englishman who failed to learn English?
