Serotta - Appreciation // Owners

Ti gravel bikes were not what I was expecting when I clicked that link

the unpainted, matte fork and general lack of flair makes it look like a planet x

Exactly what I thought. External routing too on hoses looks >>>>

Love this mate!

Got sent this yesterday. Super disappointing. I’d rather Kent, Seven or Indy get my cash.

Yeah. Or a dozen other interesting Ti builders!

Recently acquired this from the states - original Serotta F1 fork.

Which as far as I know was one of the three options available when purchasing a frame new, the others being a Kinesis aluminium or Wound Up.

I wanted to ‘restore’ my Atlanta as it currently has the kinesis fork. Seller also supplied the small ‘S’ decal for either side of the fork crown.

Anyone have any advice on where to get it repainted? Was thinking to attempt myself but unsure of the quality of job I could ultimately achieve ツ

Secondly, I’m torn between cutting the steerer and getting it threaded or running it threadless, which will require new stem.

Unless you’re really desperate for a fully traditional build, threadless will be significantly stiffer and lighter. You can get some nice silver stems, or just stick with the black stem/silver post classic combo. Of course you can always thread it later if you change your mind.

Mario Vaz’ name usually comes up for paint jobs in London.

I guess kinda related to Serotta. Does anyone in here have a Kirk?

Would anyone be interested in my Serotta CX bike? 56.5cm square from memory, full (even the brakes and cranks) Campag CX group, Zipp finishing kit, Mavic wheels.

I have a matching CSi frame and fork (same yellow) that I could put with it.

I don’t need a cross bike but I do love Serotta’s & Campagnolo. What are you after for it? Shoot me a DM (edit @Dammit forgot to hit reply)

Add me to PM list - keen for more details and info on both frames :-)

Suspect there will be a few interested.. You might need a sales thread at this rate :)

I'd like to know the price too please

I'll get some photographs together and will make a for sale thread. I'll link it through when I do so.

Can we add dibs now :-D

Also interested :)

Nice couple of hours on my Serotta today, ignore the grubby gum walls

Saw you this morning after London bridge! Stunning bike in the flesh

My gosh that is stunning!

Those new Ti ones are rather un-special though alright, just another super spendy Ti machine no different than any of the other big names...

Yeah, if you want a Serotta nowadays with classic Serotta aesthetics, you go to Dave Kirk, Kelly Bedford or Dave Wages, not Ben Serotta.

And if you want a Ti Serotta, you get a No. 22.

Cheers! Looking even better for this afternoon’s clean that was so long overdue

one of my all time favs.

Cheers mate. Hope you're well
