Stunning job by you and your painter

Looks mint and so much nicer than the modern fat tube frames

How does it ride?

Been using the bike quite a bit and have to say I love the way it rides. Its very fast and nimble.





I have changed the saddle back to a rolls as I hated the way the wording came off of the re-pro turbo I had after 10 miles. Plan is to get an original Turbo special for it.
Other than that the only other change is that I am moving to a HG casette to try and get a smoother gear change.

Little update,

I treated myself to a new saddle, was expensive but I really wanted it.





Also changed the pedals for some proper 80's colured ones ...... bit of fun but I really like them.



And I also put a nos HG cassette on with a nos 80's HG chain ........ wow the gears are so smooth and quick now.

Thanks Guys, this is and always will be the bike for me. No matter what else I build or ride this is the ONE !.

Its also finally 100% finished, with the addtion of NOS original 80's Cinelli 26.4 bars.



I've also found what has been my holy grail for some time now, a pair of original nos 80's Z Vetements mitts.
