@Arfer Bar:
Originality of this project for me was a shit!
there was only one goal—->
No cost toil and shy and create a dirty bitch porn looks bike with no apparent brakes.
The stem is a rarity of my early 90´s mtb cycle times and looks very nice @ this bike.
Sometimes I do not know whether one or the other evaluated with envy or don´t want to understand that there are other options as restore a road bike with original parts!
For me a fixed gear is never that what you mean.
But if you want, i can show you my other 2 vintage road bikes which I have been faithfully reconstructed.
I remember now, I still have a very nice COLUMBUS SLX frame (as new, of course complete under chromed) and i will now build one more devilishly good-looking bike too.
I’m already looking forward to your comments.
NO BREAKS, NO FEAR, FIXED GEAR

well, i said it before, the original paint was excellent and really cool.
i do like it better for some reason seeing the new third picture. in the third picture i can dig it.
i still think that stem is kind of horrendous. maybe if it wasn’t so incredibly long i could dig it.
the finished build isnt bad at all and it does have personality, but the same bike could have been built with a messed up lame paint job frame, not a frame that already has a pretty incredible looking and in good condition paintjob from 2 decades ago.
