  • there will be some that will not like the fact i painted it, but the paint was scabby, and i fancied a custom colour.
    Athena 11 speed , monoplanar chorus calipers, american classic 420 wheels

  • Very, very nice, crying for some silver spokes&rims IMHO, though.

  • Nice! Could do with some compact bars and/or leveled bars/hoods

  • ^This

    It is lovely though :)

    EDIT+nicer seat/seatpost

  • The lever placement on that is perfect for a traditional shallow/italian classic round bend bar .. I don't see why everyone is making comments on contact points about what is a ridden rather then a concourse show bike .. one cyclist’s ergonomic heaven is another’s hell.

    Perhaps the OP will comment but to me that bike looks nicely set up.

  • ^^^^ agree, looks just right, black wheels, bars all spot on. Love the seat post( Zeus?)...... but not a fan of the saddle.......I am a sucker for a black Rolls.

  • Again, this build is lovely. Looks seriously nice, but whats a CP thread without some discussion eh? :)

    Gumwall tyres are bang on the money for this

    ^^I just though it might be a little hard to use the levers when in the drops? Looks comfortable and aesthetically pleasing otherwise?

    ^Campagnolo nuovo record? I stuck one on a build I did for my g/f, I just like shinier seat posts than those (Upper matt section doesn't do it for me, and they are a bastard to set up!)

  • Gorgeous. Works 100% for me, looks different too.

  • very nice

  • wow,

    looking great!

    I love the mix of vintage steelframes and a new group like this.

    It fits perfeclty
