I've heard that BMW don't sell stickers anymore. Only if you came to their workshop with your un-sticked Brooklyn.

But I agree, those BBC/BMW are really cool.

finally I'm joining the club

First test ride this afternoon, just need a longer seatpost (black maybe ?) but I'm quite happy.

Obviously it isn't light, but comfort and everything works perfectly.

BINGO, more here:

Thanks, yes this handlebar seem's really nice, I was afraid because the product picture on Wiggle website isn't the good one.

Your Somec is gorgeous and the build is very cool, i've seen him long time ago in the french bikeporn.

Anyway, Somec + Max tubing = WIN

You're Pilorget looks hot ! I'm jealous

Few news of my Somec build:

Upgrade of some 600 tricolor parts to DA 7400 (also bottom bracket) and Stronglight chainring

New cockpit, I was looking for silver stuff, but Soma Highway is much more expansive than Deda Piega, and I've found this openable 3t (100mm, 26, 22,2) payed 4€ at my favorite retailer. I had some 6700 Gunmetal levers but I prefer the shape of those Modolo on the handlebar.

So the building will be:

-Shimano 600 tricolor for: headset, seat-post, calipers (gunmetal), front derailleurs (gunmetal), shifters (gunmetal), hubs
-Dura Ace 7400 for: Crank, bottom bracket, rear derailleur
-Mavic open pro rims
-3t stem
-Deda Piega handlebar

It's coming !

-Deda Piega handlebars
-Modolo aero levers

thx, I had the full 600 tricolor groupset, with gunmetal brakes/levers.
I wondered if the Dura Ace group would not be better, or just upgrade the crank and the rear derailleur.

@miro_o & @Breso: before cleaning just after purchasing he was like that:

For the head stem and handlebar I will buy a 26mm compact handlebar and black 100mm stem.

@hugo7: It's my only road bike currently so no fixie, and i'm waiting for a BMW gangsta V2 for this winter ;)

I guess I could put 28/30 mm section

Next project, not decided about the build

Superb

^ What saddle is that?

a flite

Indeed, it's an old and destroy Flite titanium FKS (full kevlar seat) like this but in black:

214 grams, not bad for a product released in 1987..

Little update, need a real compact handlebars (on this the levers should be higher on the drop) and a shorter stem..

But I love him, really reactive in this configuration..

Also need to improve the saddle position who down a little.

dont skid on 4000S

Why ? I'm used to, I ride them since 1 year and i've never puncture with them

Humm Open sup cd what's the diférence with the open 4 cd ?
Gilco/SLX whatisis ?

I've made a mistake, the rear one is an Open pro anthracite, and the front one an Open pro SUP (UB control)..

I also have some wheelset with Open Sup CD & Open 4 CD but they looks the same..
I guess it's just a question of appelation/generation..I don't know technical differences..

Gilco/SLX whatisis ?

Columbus Gilco for the top tube, and Columbus SLX for the rest:
