Pinerello Monviso - built and ridden

Well I just bought this of a RBer. It is a mid ninties Pinerello Monviso with Oria tubing. It is the seller who said it's mid ninties, the colour means it probably is.

Some photo's of the beinging of the build. The NOS dura ace 7410 headset I have won't fit as it has a 27.0mm crown race so I am having to slum it with a 105 headset.



The groupset will be a 7402/3 groupset. The cranks are already fitted (7402) with 53/39T chainrings. The 7400 BB I have in mint condition is a BSA so once again I have had to slum it with an NOS 6400 BB in Italian thread.
I lack a dura ace stem so I have bought a Nitto Dynamic stem instead and the last NOS Deda 215 HPS bars in 44cm that are available to me.[/url]


The brakes will be 7403 and new, the shifter will be Dura ace STI's which are a little grubby but they are all I have. The hubs will be 7403 8 speed HG and I even have an NOS 7401 chain. I will have to use a HG50 cassette though. I will be building wheels for this and I will use Ambrosio Chrono rims (tubular) and fit Vittoria Pave tyres.

It should look lovely when done and I will enoy riding on that ride London 100 that I have managed to get a last minute place on with my local club.

Re: Pinerello Monviso

It built and the first ride -126miles went well. It soaked up the rough roads well but is probably the tyres.

I cleared out my photobucket libary seeing as the thread seemed dead. I do another photo though seeing as I have put a new stem on it. Messy I won't even respond to that Nob.

yeah , i dont always check the date of posting of topics. the paintwork looked pretty, so i became interested to see
if it had any air brush work . mig' indurain rode pinerello s , and that must have been good advertising for them.the white one.
another make i wouldnt mind owning for a while and trying out is bottechia slx would be nice.

well done on the w site 'nob' i must check out 'stallion cycles ' see if they have a w site and also see how g obree is getting on with his project , by.

The paint is pretty much perfect. I will take a photo for you.
