The frame is a Suicycle Riot out of Hamburg. The color is called flamed-raw. I assume it is heat tinted but I don't know to tell you the truth. @Sig_Arlecchino @Rodolfo

Finished up my fast bike last week. Still getting a few things dialed in but so far so good.

Oh man I saw one of these with a pink Chris king headset the other day. It was so perfect

As a cyclist living in Germany I'm curious how this ended

Stop with the brake lines.

If that's a Cetma and you'd like to sell it let me know! I can't find any on this side of the pond.

Cool thanks! @LucasNilsson

Do you mean it's low as in low top tube(standover)?

From the Cinelli website:

HIGHEST BB EVER
Raised bottom bracket to allow continuous pedaling through every curve.

I've been commuting on some steamroller or another for 11 years but the geometry is so much different on the "true" track bikes. I like steel so the vigorelli is interesting to me but the standover on the vigorelli is much higher(?) so it seems like stopping I'm going to have to tip the bike over quite a ways to get my feet down if that makes sense? I've been riding for a while but I have only ever had a 56cm steamroller with a 110 stem. No place around me has these bikes to hop on and try out and the different geometry is confusing to me.

I'm thinking about building up either a 2017 vigorelli or a white and blue parallax. I'm thinking that since the bike is my main mode of transportation that the high bottom bracket on the vigorelli may be an annoyance? Any of you guys commuting on these types of bikes?

@HatBeard @Stroller
It happened today ha ha ha. I was leaving the bike shop of all places, which is connected to a train station, and went to stop at a red light and just tipped over sideways. There must have been 100 people standing around ha ha ha.
Just scratched my bars a bit but nothing else happened thankfully. I knew it was coming and just held on and tipped over. Now that I've got that out of the way....

How did you get the green off?

Ahhh. I'll try to keep that in mind. I've done about 100 miles with them so far but as you say I'm constantly thinking about the fact that I need to get my feet out when I stop.

I'll probably jinx my next ride by saying this but I managed my commute to work today without tipping over, and I feel like I'm riding an entirely different bike. The difference is huge!

I don't imagine it will take long!

Grabbed a pair of spds today for cheap. Wish me luck! ha ha ha

They may fit- the pads are all the way up top on mine.

Do you ever unclip accidentally? That would be my biggest fear if I could manage not to tip over when I slow down ha ha

I have the tektro R559 on mine and it doesn't rub at all. I'm not sure in numbers how long it is.

@Stroller I love how they look and feel. I would like to put SPDs on but I can't get the hang of em. I've tried a few times and tipped over every time ha ha ha might try again this summer though

Yes the rotor 3d24 track. I was going to go with omniums but these came up on sale and I figured why not try something new.

@allanw Thanks! Yes I scratched them off with a credit card. It's fixed

Rad bike! How dry does that piece of fender on the back keep you?

Hopefully this works. This is my 3rd steamroller. I commute about 20 miles round trip on it and love every second of it.
