My old Nagasawa reborn

[NHAero]

I finally sold my Nagasawa road trainer frameset. Fellow who bought it was thrilled and off it went to San Diego. I think he works for Joe Bell. Anyway, he built it up with items he said he's had for a long time. It's a bit Frankenbike but I like it!

Mavic crankset
Delta brakes
Superbe hi-lo track hub

That’s really cool! Love it.

Perfect example of a classic steel frame built up as an everyday ride...with brakes, upright bars, and lots of attention to component choices. Bravo!!

[Kirk Pacenti]

Very well done!

That looks like a comfy handlebar.

That fork curve is simply beautiful.

I really like the Mavic Crank.

Haha, I've seen the Mavic crank up close and hate it! to each his own, I will say it works here with the delta brakes.

Looks great! Nitto bars?

This is perfect. Makes me want to pick up an NJS frame just to make it a townie cruiser.

Very nice. Many (but not me) will say Deltas are the perfect brake for a fixie.

Why a high-low rear hub on a dishless wheel?

That's exactly what I thought when I first saw the image!
