Not retro but I'd thought I'd submit it here. This is my new winter/springtime road bike. Will also serve cyclocross duties. I've admired the Kaffenback for many years, largely due to their versatility as a road bike/cyclocrosser and tourer all rolled into one. I bought the frame in January 2011 when Planet X were shipping them out for the crazy price of just £99.99 (down from an RRP of £169.99). Really hasn't cost much to build up, largely due to already having most of the parts. Going for the retro look; brown saddle and bar tape, skinwall tyres, bar-end shifters etc.
Full bike update pics and spec to come.
