Fuck yeah that's good.

Mind if I share it on my @gazellechampionmondial insta account?

yes, feel free to share, maybe others got inspired aswel.

👌

Nice job. The groupset is perfect for it

NICE
Great gearing too, for Zuid Limburg. 53/39 on the front? And can you enlighten us on the wheels?

DT Swiss Di-Cut OXIC by the look of it

Ooh nice, very light for alu wheels. Great reviews on the braking surface as well. Although I wonder if they stay black with proper care and maintainence? Found this on WW, seems pretty good:

I’m running a set at the moment - so far no issues with brake surface - though others have had issues 🤷‍♂️

Like this a lot.

Pulled this out of the Barry Chick thread (that I'd never heard of). Deserves a lot more attention, what a beaut

Lovely

Is this still considered neo retro? Frame is from 87 and the Chorus groupset is from 95-96

What's going on with the bar end / tape?

Probably fell over during the photo shoot. We've all been there 😁

It's a nice frame but in my opinion it is RGOOF.

Also, Brooks saddle and messy bar tape GTFO

Ditto Five-Hats' comment, bar tape needs a re-do.

Haha all eyes on the bartape, eh? Indeed, its caused by earlier event before the impromptu photo session. Definitely gonna rewrap it perfectly, thanks for the suggestion.

And yes, quite agree its a RGOOF as the groupset age is almost 30 years.

Here's my Colnago
