June 17th, 2010 @11:50 am
Looks good. Nice classic style.
June 17th, 2010 @12:18 pm

June 17th, 2010 @1:27 pm
nice build man. i have an olmo as well but im not quite done yet. quick question is there away to update your bike on here? im new and dont know much lol
June 17th, 2010 @1:33 pm
No way to update, edit etc. Submit again…and again.. is the only way. Yep..it sucks as far as that goes.
June 17th, 2010 @2:51 pm
but we all have fun,fun,fun all day long!!
June 17th, 2010 @3:00 pm
Excellent!
June 18th, 2010 @12:16 am
Crankset is nit great, rest is good
June 18th, 2010 @9:12 am
excellent build, the silver fork on black frame looks great.
brake would be good if riding on the street.
June 18th, 2010 @9:44 am
Brakes, shrakes. He’s got style man, and when you got that the cars will naturally slow down to get a better look.
July 2nd, 2010 @8:48 am
does not deserve the number one spot!
July 16th, 2010 @2:15 pm
I like this conversion…but it needs something. It’s almost boring. Top rated…Could care less. I gave up on the “rating” system here a long time ago.
July 23rd, 2010 @11:06 am
Ok so it’s black and silver. Big deal. This just isn’t very interesting. I agree with daniel. It’s overrated!
July 23rd, 2010 @11:24 am
Would be cooler with black spokes.
July 24th, 2010 @5:15 pm
please make it go away from the top 10 list.
July 27th, 2010 @2:54 pm
BORING!
July 28th, 2010 @11:52 am
Haha!! Daniel hates it!!!
August 2nd, 2010 @2:23 pm
Hmmmm… How is it both Olmo bikes are rated higher than the Kinfolk bikes? Higher than Vintage and so many other amazing bikes? I mean really?! C’mon. Something stinks.
August 2nd, 2010 @2:35 pm
just because it dosn’t have neon colors or an aerospoke dosn’t mean its boring lol (*rib poke*) jk jk
i dunno, i just think this is a really classy build. i wouldn’t change a thing. (well, maybe the crankset for a miche advanced…basically because i just really like their chainrings lol…..thats being uber nit picky)
i gave it another 10 to piss off daniel ^_^
August 11th, 2010 @6:52 am
People seem to like Olmos…
And thanks to “illdthedj” for another 10
August 11th, 2010 @3:23 pm
your welcome, from one _aniel to another
(my name’s daniel as well ;p)
i dont really care that its an Olmo….i dunno, what i look for in a build is if all the parts come together cohesively to make a visually balanced bike. sure, quality components are great, but i find some builds using mostly all quality components can still look thrown together and not completely integrated visually.
i guess i will admit my ratings here are heavily influenced by looks. however sometimes i will rate bikes super high even if they are a bit ugly because they look like a fun ride.
this looks great to me and fun to ride, so hence the 10
August 20th, 2010 @9:30 am
Ok so about a month ago this bike was posted….and I said “looks good, nice classic style”. And it does look good….but not THAT good….and ABSOLUTELY not even close to being as nice as Kinfolk, Vintage and a TON of WAY nicer bikes on this site…bikes with serious attention to craft and style. And somehow these two Olmo’s are always right next to each other in rank and top rated. Am I the only one who thinks something stinks?! Really?….two Olmo conversions are the best bikes on this site? No F**kng way!! I’m with Daniel now. PLEASE MAKE THEM GO AWAY. THEY’RE BORING!!!! Sorry schnaniel. Your bikes are ok….just ok…but I wouldn’t look at them twice on the street….and at this point I’m plain sick of seeing them………..ahh I feel better.
August 20th, 2010 @9:46 am
A hundred bucks says this guy logs onto different computers every chance he gets and rates his bikes up.
August 20th, 2010 @12:16 pm
These are nice but could stand improvement to make the podium. It is odd both are so highly rated.
August 20th, 2010 @2:22 pm
nice and all but they are conversions ,somethings up with the votes(not that they matter).Still as representative of this site,there are many others more deserving of top spots.
September 30th, 2010 @6:09 pm
It does look Classic and today it came up to the Top Ten again. I like it.
October 1st, 2010 @5:31 am
haha illthedj, i`ll give it a 1* for very 10* you give
its a nice bike. it really is. but it doesnt deserve a spot in the top 10(in my opinion).
October 1st, 2010 @5:33 am
i just looked at it again….and its not even nice. forget my comment. your bike sucks ass!
October 1st, 2010 @9:31 am
lol daniel
(another 10) hahaha
October 1st, 2010 @9:36 am
^^ <3
October 1st, 2010 @9:37 am

October 1st, 2010 @9:39 am
oh shucks u sure know how to make a guy blush haha
October 1st, 2010 @9:42 am
full on bromance!
October 1st, 2010 @9:52 am
hahaha just dont tell my girlfriend <3
October 1st, 2010 @11:05 am
I saw the comments section stacked up with both of you and I was expecting a war. Damn! Oh well. BTW…these olmos are boring. Have I said that before?….de ja vu.
October 1st, 2010 @11:14 am
you too deserve a heart! <3 …and yes they are BORING!!!!
October 1st, 2010 @11:43 am
i think your MOM is boring! (oh snap)
October 1st, 2010 @11:48 am
my mom is dead….but thanks
October 1st, 2010 @11:51 am
it was meant for ng?
October 1st, 2010 @11:52 am
i was kidding? <3
October 1st, 2010 @11:54 am
i`m sorry
October 8th, 2010 @9:24 am
numero uno?a conversion?a nice conversion but ?
October 8th, 2010 @10:27 am
This needs honey brown leather and maybe white walls?
October 8th, 2010 @10:47 am
This needs personality. It’s like a stick figure to me. It’s nice as far as being a basic and clean bike but there’s nothing that holds my attention or makes me remember it….aside from it somehow ending up in the top ten…..again?
October 8th, 2010 @11:38 am
YOUR MOM’S A STI….nevermind
its clean and understated. so many fixed gear bikes reek of “look of me”…this is classy stealth like a ninja tuxedo.
October 8th, 2010 @2:29 pm
I showed my Mom this bike…she said it’s boring. Then I showed my Grandma this bike and she fell asleep… instantly.
October 8th, 2010 @2:31 pm
Should have titled it – Olmo Boring.
October 8th, 2010 @3:27 pm
are you kidding me? they are both on the number one spots again? how pathetic are you schnaniel?
October 8th, 2010 @4:35 pm
hahahah Olmo’s top 1,2,3???
now i like the red and black Olmos, but thats pretty ridiculous.
October 8th, 2010 @5:30 pm
methinks a malodorous wind wafts from the direction of the Danes.
October 19th, 2010 @11:20 am
Ugh! not again. Get out of the top ten! You suck!!!
October 19th, 2010 @11:23 am
Ugh!!!!! Get out of the top ten!!
October 21st, 2010 @11:19 am
So schnaniel how many times have you voted your bikes up? Lame.
October 21st, 2010 @12:29 pm
@ Biff and the other girls:
I haven’t been here for weeks. So cool down and enjoy the bikes…
October 21st, 2010 @12:36 pm
I love it when guys try to piss off guys by calling them “girls.” That shit is so old….I think it worked back in the 80′s.
October 21st, 2010 @12:47 pm
…and by the way: Yes, today I voted 10 stars for my bikes. But I bet you will counter that.
October 21st, 2010 @12:57 pm
Awesome! schnaniel checks in after being away and suddenly both his bikes go up in score again. And the same time. Pathetic!
October 21st, 2010 @1:08 pm
Hey schnaniel…Since you now admit to voting up your own bikes and forcing them to stay in the top ten, the very least you can do for this site is give 10 stars to bikes like this that actually deserve to be in the top ten.. http://www.myfixedgear.net/porteurxleather
See the difference? I agree with Biff. You’re lame.
October 25th, 2010 @12:33 pm
@ ng: i don’t like the porteurxleather at all. so, sorry, i won’t vote for it…
October 25th, 2010 @1:28 pm
schnaniel, I used the Porteurxleather bike as an example to show you the difference between an average build(s) like your bikes and a build that’s in another league. Whether you like the Porteurxleather bike or not is irrelevant. The point is there are a number of bikes on this site that are great examples of devotion, craftsmanship and creative vision that far exceed the average bike. It’s those bikes that deserve the top spots as their owners/builders have gone to great lengths to make them what they are. No offense intended, but your bikes are average conversions at best. If you really don’t understand the difference, then it’s something that can’t be explained to you.
October 25th, 2010 @1:54 pm
save your breath guys,this pathetic putze “needs” his top tens to validate his worth.Self important dipster who feeds on dispute.don’t feed the troll.along with voting his bikes up he probably 1 votes every thing else and doesn’t know or care from good.
October 26th, 2010 @12:37 am
“examples of devotion, craftsmanship and creative vision”
hahaha, calm down man. do you actually sleep with your bike? you seem to have a pretty intensive relationship to it…
November 5th, 2010 @11:48 am
I’m quite calm shnaniel. Again you obviously weren’t paying attention…I was never talking about my bike. Sloman is right.
