@tommmmmmmmmmm
im gonna try and make it work, but i might just keep it to a single ring up front@heythropbikepolosoc
well tubus racks are nice but expensive, im trying to use what I have. I know im killing the frame but I dont really want to sell it nor can I afford to build it up with lovely campag components and a shamal wheelset. So for now I think this gonna have to continue its path, but slowly ill give it the parts it deserves. Besides I've got a bike already which is built up properly! -

So decided to build my first geared bike from pretty much scratch. After being inspired by that geared motorola merckx lo pro with I have decided to pursue making my own in time for when my school term starts.
Here is what I've done so far taking this frame

Columbus brain tubed OS Stradaand these wheels

and add a dash of risers, cross top bars, wald basket, trigger shifters you get this so far


Haters gonna hate, but this is gonna be one hell of a fun and fast commute.
Might give it the shamal treatment if I can find a matching rear to my front cough George Sportif coughTo buy list:
8 speed rear derrailleur
2 speed front derraileur
Crankset
and im sorted!oh and for the record, I have drop bars and stis for this but want to try something a bit different and practical

I'm sorry but oury's I think are gonna stay, they are no so wide so I can have all the shifters and brakes close to where I will use them
