not bad. but make it your own! look around and find the pieces and parts and colors that just jump at you! bikes are as much fun to customize as they are to ride!

yep,carbon fork and something different for a front brake.i’m thinking u-brake but—i kind of enjoy brakeless.total concentration.long term want to lose the blue and polish the aluminum frame.you the experts,suggestions?

point well taken.I have an OS brake ordered.Idiot drivers,dogs and kids are facts of life.But brakeless around the ‘hood is very Zen like and fresh,even for us FOG’s(fat old guys).Cycling was getting stale,flatlands and no MTBing so the novelty is cool for a while.

let’s go for the record and knock purple sofa off!go bianchi!

only the thoughts of what if.like what if the chain dropped,what if that car turned in front of me,what if that dog ran out,ect-yada,yada.Twenty five years ago I was fearless but don’t heal as fast now.Some rides I don’t even use the brake,even single speed,but it’s comforting to know it’s there.

Yeah brakeless is just plain stupid. That zen feeling is quickly replaced with fear and adrenaline. Too many close calls. I’d be dead in minutes in my neighborhood, thousands of cars and hills from the depths of Hell.

Sounds a bit like massaging the marrow to me.
Simple looking bike here, but needed the work to make it yours. I like the frame colour though

P.S. Slo get a brake. Don’t want to lose you now I’ve found you.

Looks like a long reach for those Track drops. Do you also use road drops ? less drop I think and curve up top starts sooner with the track.

ew

eww,ugly color poorly done.
