beater happens to have one, never used one before, just wondering.

Deep v, Champagne rimmed, Crimped tubed, Polished crown, Large flange porn.

Wow Miro_o, saying it like that makes it sound so dirty.

But I think I like it!

Ok, just did a little sick in my mouth...

:)

Purchased a Zipp 340 for my Leader. Mainly for shits and gigs.

The Pinarello's wheelset is outrageous. Perfect, even.

are they cxp30 sprints?

Does sprints mean tubs? I'm fairly certain they're CXP30s.

Yes, it does.

^Ah yes, I've not been keeping up to date with individual CP threads.

Pistoffski - you're on a roll with vintage steel... Have you thought about building up that white/chrome Tommassini road frame??

My locker at work is full of current projectness

I had a lock-up like that.

Are you making a bike entirely from handlebars? :-)

He's working on his entry in the BSNYC cockie awards

Fitted a set of proper track forks to my fort. Pretty pleased with it now although I would like to get the forks painted black to match the frame at some point.

Looks really quite good mate.

What did you have on there before?

I had a pair of carbon forks. I suppose you could call the change a downgrade, but I suppose I'm just a hipster... oh well.

finally a decent picture i managed to get out today

^^ That looks like a great improvement. I take it thats a 1" threaded to no threaded adapter on 2nd photo Mick?

^ Rogan, that looks ace mate! Nicely done! I don't know if its the angle of the photo, but it looks like the bars are kinda angling a bit too far up, instead of flat, transitioning into the brifters? But bloody lovely build, the rival groupo really works. How does it ride?

Thanks. The headset is indeed a threaded headset (chris king grip nut) which I had previously been using with an adapter.

Looks better as a quill stem, looks a hell of a lot better now!
