    Another Trek joins my fleet ,the 1999 Trek Alpha Alumium SL 2300

    After two years, the Trek 2300SL is finished and much better than expected. 8,74 kilos is extremely respectable knowing that is a 26 years old bike. It handles well and is comfy for an aluminium frame

    the last frame acquisition, the uncommon and rare principia RSL in aluminium 7020

    the last frame acquisition, the uncommon and rare principia RSL in aluminium 7020

    After the fork and headset were installed I noticed a very very thin and small hairline crack in the headtube, so I decided to give it to repair and have the place where the crack happened repainted.

    Worst Bike I Ever Had

    Decathlon were never quality bikes and even their so called high end bikes were far to be from the highest quality.

    Worst Bike I Ever Had

    For me it was a Bernard Dangre when I was a kid worst handling of any bike I have ever had and bad brakes. Had also a Girardengo folding bike which was pretty atrocious regarding handling and heavy.

    Another road bike project: the 1992 C.T. Wallis

    This frame being slightly small and as much as how I figured to adapt it to my size, this will be given as a present to the owner of my local bike shop due to the very good work he did and does for me over the years , plus I don't have much space anymore so this one will go.I have removed the...
