Summer wheels now on 😎

Best Cervelo paint job there is in my eyes👌🏻

Cafe stop!!

!! Please can you send me some images & measurements?

Thank you

Again skull I just found this looking for TVM images, it seems we both have an enigma and the Ti gazelle.... all I need now is a team TVM to complete!! Lovely bike..

Did you get the paint sorted?

What a belter! Cracking job

Lovely build, looks more like a museum piece than a bike to ride! Hope the first proper ride is as good as it looks

Looking gooood

Just came across this post browsing... is this the same man who has the Gazelle Titan Road build I was commenting on?

Classy frame back in the day!

Looking forward to the final photos!!

I’ve put some fairly heavy duty Strada wheels on after the mavic free hub was dragging, its weighing 20.26 lb / 9.19kg without any tools/lights.

Not the lightest, but it will make the summer bike feel so much better (next year!)

Old thread but wondered how this esprit looks now?!

That’s looks a bit special, what type of tubing is it??

Road test..... apart from a dragging rear hub (oil used in there slightly too thick) and an extra split link in the chain so far so good... rides very similar to a steel frame as the old carbon forks are quite flexy

Fingers crossed it will look as good as this after winter!!

Cinelli cork gel bar tape thrown on and ready for riding.... will be an all year round bike so need to Chuck the normal wheels in!

More images of the build!

It’s close but no different to my Peugeot perthus steel, that’s never had an issue with chains getting stuck, fingers crossed...

Picked up a 13/29 cassette/cable inners/front mech clamp/cinelli gel cork bar tape up from the LBS, plus some look keo classic 3’s on offer..

Groupset being hastily thrown on to make sure all things fit / look right..!

Yea you’re probably right on that, I’ve got the pro stem earmarked for a Sarto frame I have in ‘stock’ hidden up the loft.... that’s needing forks still so one for next year maybe!!!

The groupset is a 10 speed record with centuar cranks, I’ve found to be tight fitting with clearances between rings and chainstays, it was likely designed with square taper in mind which had some adjustability....

Picked up a 105mm quill stem in a ti colour, may end up vapour blasting the whole frame so it would match better after that..... looks about the right age?

Looks like the high end frame in 1998, cost me £350 so feel it was a good buy!

Just started one 👍

Also stumbled on the 1998 brochure for the Titan https://www.bikeituk.club/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Gazelle_1998.pdf

Did you survive the trip?

Start of the build.... I had a record 10 groupset and some older, well used mavics in the garage.... for measuring up I had a 100mm stem hanging about to see if I could match dimensions of my other bikes, plus some nice looking cosmic rims for the purpose of measuring....
