Does anyone have experience with buying a second hand bike in Japan. Not to export but to use while I'm there. Are the prices for bikes similar to Europe? Would it be hard to find a big size (I'm 6'5). Cheers!

So good

That turned out a lot better than I expected!

Pics!

Beautiful

That first paintjob is so rad! Great work

Imo this will look way better without gumwalls.

Awesome choice of components! I love the wheels

The new Trek 520 comes with aluminium forks... I wonder why?

Awesome plan, go for it! You will always have doubts about the plan, but once you start it's always easier than you thought it would be. And if it turns out you really don't like it or you feel unsafe you could always take a flight and continue cycling somewhere else.

I like to build a new touring bike and I'm looking for a frameset but I can't really find what I'm looking for... I'd love a velo orange camargue but they don't make these frames anymore. What I want; canti bosses, clearance for 700x2.0, 1 1/8" ahead, steel, long chainstays, long headtube. A 700c lht would work but I like something less boring... Does anyone have any recommendations? Do I need to go custom?

That turned out really nice!

Nice Intec build! Why did you decide for 26" after the Vagabond. I'm after a new touring bike and like the Intec but I've always been fine with my 700x40c tyres, even on rough roads in Asia so I'm not sure if I should stick to that..

Yea no way around that.

Awesome bike, this is exactly what I'm looking for at the moment.

Awesome project!

It is Australia! How did you know? I moved here a year ago and bought the bike here.

Digging up this old thread,this is my commuter

Thanks guys! I don't mind the ratty look myself but I don't wanna waste my money on it!

I'm temped to buy this, but don't know much about Colnago's.. Does anyone know more about this master piu, are the straight forks original? Is it worth anything in this rusty condition?
