I bet that's some thin tubing right there. Probably crack it trying to fix that big a dent.

yeah Bikeflights "totalled" it and it has been wall art since then but since I had most everything to build it up figured worth a ride or two
Nice looking frame. Might be worth getting the tube replaced.

So do you find your bikes or do they find you? Almost as if they show up like strays. Hey, this guy will feed us.
Just languished on the local ads for a couple of months. I finally went and got it because someone needs to look after it. LOL!

Cleaned up the components today and swapped on a C.F. seatpost that will give me the setback I need on this with it's fairly steep angles. Also put on a favorite saddle for now and some light modern wheels. 20 lbs 6 ozs now but there will be more weight coming off when I put on a proper stem and smaller bars in my size.

OK what on earth are those bars? They look absolutely enormous!

Some kind of Profile design bars. They are going to be gone along with that stem. That's a 6 inch drop easily.

I'm hoping to finish this up this weekend so it's sitting against the stand right now. It's got a Mavic Starfish crank and BB but the rest is going to be Campagnolo 9 speed. I also found a Fizik Arione white saddle with a yellow center stripe that's now on it.

I've had this frame for a year or two now and it's time to build it up.

Latest wheel build for my TS2.

Campagnolo Record hubs with Ambrosio Excellence rims. They will have Alpina spokes in them. It will be a 100% Italian bike when it's done. Custom Grandis with Campy Chorus 12 and vintage NOS bar, stem and post and of course Veloflex tires.

Which eroica/when? I was going to do CA this year but the date kept changing and now AFAIK it's postponed until 2021. I did it (heroic route) on a vintage bike last time but I think next time I'll just ogle the vintage bikes and do nova eroica.
