Lo Pros, Represent

Finally get to join the ranks

Here's Les

Got some bullhorns to try out as soon as I get hold of a black 26 clamp quill stem.

Very nice build ... Have a thing for frames with extended seattubes/headtubes.

Cheers for the compliment and thanks for the Rolls! In near new condition.

My casati lo pro in hacksaw challenge mode (with associated swag)

My F(ake) Moser. 700c front and rear. Very slight pursuit-ness. Weird geometry with a short seat tube and long top tube. This it with Cinelli Touch ergo bars:

And with Nitto RB001's:

No recent pics with rizorz.

And... Apparently this isn't a lo-pro. Oh well.

Those cranks are sexay.. Ofmega Mistral.. Although visully it would've been best if the Zipp wheel would be in the other way, pointing the same direction as the cranks.. But that would of course be a-aerodynamic..

if it wasn't designed to replicate the drop bar position when using bull horns, it isn't a lo-pro

Not so much using my own argument to back up my own argument (see http://www.google.com/search?q=recursion ) as pointing out that the question of a definition is an old one which seems to have been somewhat settled.

Looking good Felix! Im glad that frame is getting the love I could never give it!

Do you disagree with my definition? :-)

*I'm getting better - at least now when I see Russian, Ukrainian and Bulgarian next to one another, I can tell which is which.

Really liking the look of these lo pro frames, Wondering if anyone could put me onto a lead to purchasing one of them? Not looking to spend massive amounts of money, what price range for a lo pro frame?
Sorry for the amateur question time.

I have this for sale, but is not cheap...

what price range for a lo pro frame?

From <£100 for a sound but untidy Orbit 531 to >£5000 for a mint Cinelli Laser.

Thank you.
Could you tell me a few makes & models ranging up to £250?

an affordable faux pro is the Affinity Lo Pro. I have one and it's a well build frame.

You don't seem to have grasped the concept yet. Few proper Lo-Pro frames have been made since the early 1990s, and the first ones were from the early 1980s. As a result, you need to seek out something second hand. There are quite a lot around, from the usual Italian brands and many of the UK custom frame builders who operated during the relevant era.

Try to find one with a 26"/650c front wheel, as there are more rim and tyre options in that size, although the 24" size is also available in practical daily-driver tyres and may be better if you're not tall - I'm 6'1" and my Rourke with a 26" front has a 90mm (i.e. very short) head tube.

It's not done yet
But 24" is abit odd to get used to

At least you've built it up!

it sat in my room for 6 months before I put a headset on it and then decided it was in fact way too big and sold it on.
