It should be important. As he created this thread, he had an idea/theme in mind. Whoever choose to post in this thread, should respect his inputs, his efforts in this thread. If he dislikes crit bikes in this thread, instead of having so much negative conversation here, why don't you just start a new thread about crit bikes, where you can express your passion for crit bikes? In this case, both threads can be a lot more constructive, and a lot more fun for the members here.

crit bikes, njs bikes really have no place in this thread, as they lack both the individuality and the personal touch.

At first, I never quite get the whole idea about HHSB, I always wondered why almost my entire stable have been posted in this thread. But hey, if people like my bikes, I am cool with that. And if people hate my bikes, I really don't care, after all, it's what ever makes me happy matters.

We need more productive posts in both this thread and the bikeporn thread. Recently, both of this treads have just been so painful to read..

Just one question, did you even bother to check who started this thread?

Thanks for the warning, got it.

Can you email me in regards on how I can purchase it from New Zealand? Thanks

Hi, is it still available? Thanks

ah? how did you know? Yes and no, not bring it back to New Zealand with me on this trip, need to wait till the next trip. So it's still stored somewhere safely in Taiwan. Got other projects ahead of this one at the moment.

You owe the original owner of that Laser an apology.
Most of the Lasers were on custom order basis, there were various fork designs.

Somehow, all the custom orders made by customers from Taiwan, no matter road or track, came with that ugly as f@#k fork.

I am not going to defend this guy and his other bikes, as I don't know him well enough (he's the second owner). But I do know the original owner of this Cinelli Laser, therefore I must say something.

This bike was made to order for him when he personally flew to Milan, it was one of his life time dreams. Anyways, why don't you go ask you Italian friends to find out if the following letter is legit or not.

Thanks. Yeah, because it's titanium, so the light effect is different to alloy and steel.

my bikes have been posted by you guys in this thread (just a few times).. let me see if I can get this right by myself..

My first build for 2016.

Collectors from China mostly cares about getting expensive parts all on to the bike, but tend to not pay attention to the details. Also, they just love to throw money in your face, whenever they see you have a nice build, neglecting all your effort on the build by asking "hi, is this for sale?" every time a nice bike is posted.

That's my favorite piece for sure!

Thanks for liking my bikes.
I don't usually take apart my bikes once they are built in the exact way I intended (I've recently taken apart 2 bikes as I just didn't like it, waiting for more parts till I put them together again), so yes, most of my bikes are all readily rideable.
I'll see what I can do with a post with my bikes, hopefully you won't get disappointed!

Ah, thanks. I actually almost gone with this saddle! But end up getting the other one as there are too many builds with this saddle out there already.

Thanks.
Currently, I can't find anything else except the Araya Gold World Champion 16B NJS rims. I will probably go with these if I can't find anything else in the next couple of weeks.

To make things a bit more different, instead of the obvious choice of Kashimax x Nagasawa saddle, I've gone with Titanium instead:

Now.. waiting for the right rims, and all the rest.. WATCH THIS SPACE

I want to differentiate this Nagasawa from all the great builds already out there, I had to find these for this build:

I never knew about this thread till recently when I was asked to post my Panasonic Ti bike. The amount of useful feedbacks from this page is amazing, therefore here's my second post.

Those who have known me (or my bikes) probably have realised that I've had a few Japanese bikes, but had NEVER built up a full NJS bike. The main reason was because, the process of finding parts is what I enjoy the most. But with NJS frames and parts, they are just readily there for purchase. As long as you are willing to pay, anyone can build up a damn beautiful bike! Don't get me wrong, I still love those builds, it's just me, I don't like getting things the easy way

However, not having a Nagasawa, it just feels incomplete! Therefore, I've been secretly getting parts ready for this:

This was posted in another forum before, but I've realised, I can get different build ideas from different forums based on location and culture, so... PLEASE KEEP THE FEEDBACKS FLOWING!

I wish I have the round ones, I like those ones better.
I don't know what to show you except the markings on my own moscows.
The bar on the bike came with the frame from its original rider.

right side it says 3TTT

left side it says Moscow

this is what it looks like on the bike, as you can see, it's chopped down by it's rider before.

and that's the original length compared to the chopped down one on the bike.

Hope this helps

the bar you've acquired isn't for this bike.
with this Rossin, there are 2 bars you can get. Both from 3T. One is the longer version of the Moscow. And the other one has more of a rounded angle, found on Takhion pursuits.
The problem is, usually more people cut down those 3T bars to suit their riding positions, that's why all the bars you can find on goggle looks different.
There are a few bikes out there which requires bars other than the 3T bars, such bikes usually use some vintage Nitto pursuit bars.
But hey, as long as it suits your riding position, you can use any bars you like, it's your bike after all.

great bike!
but may be just too much curves on one build? straight line saddles and handlebars might make it more aggressive? just a thought. It just looks a bit.. cute and round at the moment.. nevertheless, it's awesome!

Wow! Thanks for all the awesome feedbacks! To be honest, I wasn't kidding about this bike being a beater, as out of all my bikes, this frame has the most beat up paint job, with the most sign of usage.

With all these positive feedbacks, now that I'm just afraid to modify it even further, as I'll probably upset you guys! ha..

Well, here it goes, don't worry, shamals are always there to be put back on if you guys really hate this... ha

Gone are the shamals, fizik, and c-record cranks. Campagnolo Pista wheelset and Campagnolo Record crankset are added instead, to make all components a bit more time period correct. Fizik is replaced by a Regal to give it a bit more rugged look. With the addition of al the blacks, the overall build looks more balanced, I think.. The downside is, too much branding on those damn Campy wheels! I might have to mark them over with a black vivid..

my one is the columbus max one.

as for the handlebar, they are becoming really difficult to find. I do have a spare one, but I just can't quite let it go yet.. If I ever change my mind, I'll let you know.

if you do eventually want to sell it, let me know, thanks.

twins!

can't wait to see this project of yours finished!

thanks, i might give it a go. it's not completely finished, i'll update the post as soon as it's done.
