This is actually my first bike buildup / fixed gear conversion.
Got my hands on this lovely Cilo Swiss Road Frame (any one know which model this is?)
I wanted to keept it simple and not to fancy and I think in turned out great.
It’s not perfect yet, I’ll need to get some proper straps / cage and a different stem, this one is a litte high imo.
Parts I used:
Miche Xpress Hub Set
Mach1 CFX Rims
MKS Sylvan Track Pedals
Miche Cog
Charge Spoon Seat
Stronglight Chainweel
Stormy Archer Crank
Goldfinger Break Lever
Dia Compe BRS 100 Break

Ihre Furcht vor Golem ist unbegründet. Ein Meisterwerk.

I think I agree with JQ, nice work. Good looking , sharp colors and the radial spoking up front looks distinctive.

I am developing a real fetish for the disassembled bike shot.

That parted out pic reminds me if a how to guide “these are the basic parts you will need to build a good SS/FG”

this is a very nice build.
the brown grips look a little out of place, i would have gone for black ourys. but yah, nice and clean regardless.

Nice conversion. I had a Cilo. Those Reynolds framesets are SO light.

I love the picture with all the parts laid out! After building a couple bikes from the bottom up I enojoy the components as much as the build.

Nice minimal build. Only complaint is stem/seatpost height. Drop stem, raise seatpost, black grips/saddle. Then a 10.
