Trek 470 Fast Track makeover

[Peuf]

Just wanted to share my recent revamp of a Trek 470 Fast Track, the frame paintjob was trashed so I decided to go for a new paintjob and it was an amazing decision, I mean look at the result! It is fitted with a mix of 105 and RX100 components, rides super smooth!

I also made a short video of the build if you wanna watch it

How did you do that with the fork steerer....is that a fork for a bigger frame, which is just chopped down? And the stem looks like it clamped directly onto the steerer? Very nice.

I used another fork from another bike as the original one was missing, it is a 1inch a-head fork so I bought a 1inch a-head headset for it too

and these are JIS frames, so your headset must be quite rare?

I think it was OK, I used a M-Parts headset if I rememebr correctly
