Yeah @HHC- maybe its just my designer OCD kicking in,.. couple that with my total lack of respect for 'the past' and I'm thinking about dropping decals. Its a conversation for another thread but I think there's a lot to be said for old stuff (I bought a very old frame for a reason) but nonetheless, I'm not dogmatically attached to shit like 'vintage' just because.
I'm going to let it run for now- the build is brand new and exciting still. I'll update my changes on Pedalroom (IACGAF) - probably a new cockpit coming soon and I'm almost certainly going to build an obnoxiously deep front wheel at some point over the winter.
Whatever happens though, whatever the case, whatever the feedback- this is a bike I've thought about a lot and I absolutely adore. It rides like a fuckin champ and I couldn't be happier to finally be back on a fixed drivechain after so many years. Hand-claps to Poland and Italy for making the awesome shit which allowed me to construct such a joyful vehicle.
