    Hi All! Moving this over from another thread.

    this is version 0.8 of my new bike - I plan to finish it with a full athena groupset. will be updating the progress here as i upgrade!

    0.8 version specs are as below

    headset and BB - Ofmega - i think im happy with these. ideally campagnolo, but have other priorities.
    frame - Bianchi 58.5cm
    seatpost - kalloy black - i want to use an athena seatpost eventually, but really do like the look of a black seatpost.... but will have to give way!
    stem - ritchey quill - im happy with this.
    cranks - athena 2nd generation
    front derailleur - shimano - to become athena
    rear derailleur - athena 2nd generation
    shifters - athena 8 speed indexed
    wheels - open sup to shimano 600 - i have an athena to omega wheelset waaiting to be mounted... yeah! but might keep the shimano set for the winter.
    bars - some bars i found somewhere - i love these bars.
    breaks - shimano 600 at the moment. I want them to be athena, but i heard they are very expensive, so probably will come last...

    here are some pictures
    they are taken with my amazing samsung phone camera!

    i know non driveside pictures are bad... they are athena 2nd gen. cranks. very pretty.


    one day it will be full athena! the shifters, cranks and rear derailleurs are as of now
    oh and an athena wheelset, once spring comes...

    saddle was a birthday present from the missus :)


    i love these bars

    Thank you!

    Hello!
    the sale of this bike fell through multiple times and I wasnt able to sort it out before i left London.
    now im in NY and the bike is at a friend's place!

    Its Caledonian Road.... anyone want to take it for 140?

    it needs the front brake sorted, a flat repaired and rear wheel trued, then good to go!
    it is composed of decent parts in general - the parts will add up to well above the price of the bike as a whole.

    let me know guys!

    Jeremy
