  • ^whoops.
    Anyway, here's a shitty phone picture of it's current state.

    Actually I'm thinking of letting it go, any advice on what I could expect to sell the frameset/full bike for?
    Partslist:
    Headset: Stronglight a9
    Stem:Cinelli 1R
    Bars:Cinelli LA84
    Seatpost:Campagnolo Chorus Aero
    Saddle:Selle Italia turbo lite
    Front wheel:Campagnolo record hub laced to Fir Ea10 speedy rim with straight-gauge spokes, vittoria rubino
    Rear Wheel:Modified goldtec track hub laced to a matching Fir Ea10 rim with Sapim race spokes, Phil wood 16t cog (ridden for about 50km), vittoria rubino
    Crankset:Campagnolo polished and laser engraved a la c-record 1st gen ultra torque chainset, Polished velosolo 47t ring (same mileage as cog)

  • That looks awesome, those changes have really finished it off nicely.

  • Don't sell it...! So great...

  • Thanks,
    I'm sad to let it go (didn't think I could get attached to an object this bad), however the fun improving on it and tinkering turned sour somewhere along the lines.
    I intended to machine the ultratorque cranks and bb cups to allow me to run them at a 42 chainline, then relacing the wheels to c-record hubs and once again changing the headset to a c-record. Alas, I don't have the money or will to continue since I get more and more frustrated.

  • Don't worry and do as you wish.

    Your project is awesome and inspiring - rarely you get to see a ressurection like this!

  • What was the name of the shop? I am replacing the seat stays on an alan pista
