no rack ed?

+1 for a king cage

Probably not, just a front light rack, but that's it.

this kind of set-up (additional front rack for bivvy);

Latest Builds:

Vivalo.

Frame and forks were bought on the travels in Tokyo. And held onto for over a year by Snowy, awaiting my return.
Dura Ace 7600 cranks, Suzue Promax/Campag Lambda wheelset from Morgasm, Nitto Technomic stem, Ritchie/Nitto seatpost, and Supercorsa Saddle.

This is the summer ride, for sporting it about town as the sun shines, which is what I've been doing for most of today...

Pretorius Longtom

Replacement Ti frame for the one I bent in a crash back in '09.
Feels lovely, and I'll probably take off the purple decal on the seat tube.
Thomson Stem and Seatpost, Red low flange Phils/Rigida DPX wheels, Easton EC70 carbon forks, Sram S500 brake levers, Sugino 75 Crankset and my old Fizik Arione saddle.

I've got to do a bit of tweaking of saddle and stem position, but it fits pretty well straight away.

This is the every day, all weather ride, which will be in use through the winter and will be taken out for some longer rides into the countryside in the near future..

Both ride beautifully and I am very happy.

Love the Longtom, but it needs silver spacers.

Loved the longtom too, I though the sticker look a bit nafty as well.

If mine is anything to go by, they'll soon peel off of their own accord.

Naff or nifty? We may never know.

Both the Pretorius & Vivalo are quite cool Corny.

STS on the vivalo

seatpost (thomson elite) and handlebar (3t ergonova pro) arrived, waiting for the bb

Magnets

Psee, what are the brakes on this? Campagnolo I assume, but what model/vintage?

Edit: never mind, worked out that they're Athena.

Yep.

Just finished it but already thinking of getting it painted (already had that planned) and equipping it with 2011 Veloce/Athena instead. Hubs only work with 8spd so will have to ditch the zondas in that case :(

This reminds me of when Maximus drew a 'fixie' chez moi. Talented 'little' fella*.

*Both of you.

I didn't draw that.

what a talent little observer you are.

Needs moar pannierz

And spacers. I only count 4.

I didn't draw that.

Well, no kudos for you then.
