Bike porn

Bar tape looks out of place.
Rest of the bikes is worn in and used looking and the bar tape is too pristine.
Black would have been better.

That's so weird. Both of us looking at bikes on flickr and we come across the same one..

Isn't it weird!?... :D
Mind bottling..

Dutch, take notes.
Peoplez don't appreciate yo bike.

How curious!! Ha! I found that same bike today.... was looking at it for ages earlier today....
Toby.d, Toby.d..... are you ceiling cat, watching me watching porn?

Nuno,are you toby.d's mentor?

just proper drops with some well loved/worn bar tape
...and you're "in"

i like it, the best looking "sport "i have seen.

I'm flattered.

IMHO nothing wrong with white bar tape / Cinelli No. 65 bars and FC-7600 on a tarck bike.
Don't worry, the tape has already some marks now.

Wasn't built for pron reasons or hanging on the wall, just for riding on a track.
All (more or less) period correct and serving the purpose.
Now optional pedals PD-7400 available.

Big thanks to Gleb. ;-)

What rims are on the cNopt bike with the too white bar tape?

DA hubs and Araya rims?

Let down a little by the saddle angle.

always liked these sport frames/bikes
i think i'm gonna get me one of these when i grow up

what has your experience been so for?

Lovely picture that one ^

Thanks - this one deserved a proper setting, outside the 'studio'..

^ Those bars are a little high. Scoble Syndrome?

cyclocross set-up you manwhore.

Those bars are a little high. Scoble Syndrome?

I wouldn't agree they are too high but surely it'd make more sense to flip the stem upwards and remove a spacer or two? Does the length of steered increase front end flex?

What rims are on the ~~cNopt ~~ спорт bike with the too obligatory, "racers-correct" white bar tape, but wrong all black instead of tan/black tubs?

36H 700C Wolber Profil 20 tubular from late 1980s.
In thos days, this was deep section.

what has your experience been so far?

Just what you can expect from a mid 1980s track bike with a steel frame.
Excellent ride for an average, no olympic level racer.
A head turner on modern indoor tracks, as long as you keep the original paint and decals.
Concerning the assembly and finding correct parts: well, you know.

That Tommasini from Current Projects is a fucking peach

Apparently it does increase the flex, but surely you'd want that to reduce the vibration. I'm used to seeing CX bikes with a higher toptube which is why I suspect the rider has Scoble Syndrome - long legs short arms/back

yeah awesome bike! everything just right... i only didn't post here as I thought would be a reep.
