They're NOS too, got another pair in silver. I'm definitely keeping hold these, might sell the silver ones though.

Leo, yeah they look great. but aren't their sidewalls machined? they don't look so on your photo.

edit: er, I was confusing them with CXP 33!

finally finished. been a really enjoyable build over the last 5 months. you can see how i got the frame in green.

It's amazing to ride, that's the main thing, i totally expect people to hate the bar tape and the seatpost, but that's me being skeptical.

Thanks a million to all the LFGSS people from who i sourced my parts and for the frame prepping. All that you see is from here except the seatpost.

I'm a happy chappie that's for sure !

I was a bit torn on that too for a while, but brakless i can't deal with so i just had to put a brake on.
I know i know, HTFU and all that, but i ride too fast to not have one!

^ Good point well made.

Don't stop riding a brake because of peer pressure!

forms you misunderstand, i am no advocate of more brackless fixie-skidders on the streets, just that sweet set of track wheels with a brake rankles my sensibilities somewhat.

aside from that, i reiterate - nice job!

thanks max, i just need a silver thomson seatpost, and some pedals clips and straps and i'm done. would have like a campagnolo c record aero seatpost but they are all so short! mostly 210mm or less.

it irkes me too, to have the braking surface rubbed away. i do have a 2nd cxp33 clincher wheelset half built, i think my conscience would feel better if i used a brake on them and saved the Pistas for slow forum rides or days on the track (which i don't at the moment, but hope to do at some point).

oh i almost forgot, thanks Murtle for allowing me to use your patented saddle system ;)

and another thing, re-cycle, looking very nice and very tight, but where is a full picture !! gah!

Thanks HM, just got a bit fucked over with unrelated stuff, so now it will take longer to finish it. No dough. I'm not sure which tires to get tho, wanting to go fully (98%, saddle and spokes) Japanese, made my choices run shorter already.... so, panaracer maybe, Ribmo.

Nice one Dylan, nice one Leo, nice one Re-cycled
