Greetings,
This is a long-time coming project. Bought the frame almost 7 months ago and finally (almost) finished it. Gotta be honest, this is not gonna be a project with daily updates because I've archived every updates in the past, so here it goes.
I've always wanted to have an Italian frame, a decent one, and a Lo-Pro. A Cinelli Supercorsa would be perfect but budget didn't allow me at the time. Saw this Faggin Pursuit, which is Italian and Lo-Pro, Columbus SLX, and with Cinelli BB shell, perfect! And with these pantographs, I just couldn't miss it.

I know it should be done with gears but I still like the simplicity of single-speed or fixed-gear bike. Perhaps one day. So the theme of the build is Full Italian. Sì.. I decided to build with (almost) full C-Record Pista group. Got the bits from here and there but completed it in the end.
Always dreamed to have Sheriff Star hubs and finally got them! Ahh.. brought back memories of that month where I had to eat pasta everyday. My next mission was to find italian rims. Days later I found Ambrosio Durex on eBay and arrived a week after, now time to build it:
A day later it's straight and true.
