Nobilette Custom 70's Vintage Racer
Nobilette1small.jpg
Nobilette2small.jpg Nobilette3small.jpg This a fun project I did with Mark Nobilette a couple of years ago. Full 1970's race geometry and clearances. With this configuration of water bottle mounts and no brake cable guides, we designed this to be a 1976 race bike All NOS Campagnolo long dropouts w/ fender eyelets, cable guides, cable stops NOS tubing, fork crown, BB shell, lugs, etc. Italian BB Threading 1" threaded steerer Standard '70s-'80s tubing diameters Wet paint 130mm rear spacing Except for the 130mm rear spacing, this is a 1976 race bike. I've changed the parts on this thing many times. This configuration works the best. Campagnolo Record Triple 10s Drive Train w/ down tube index shifters (30/42/50 x 13-26) Ambrosio Nemesis rims on Campagnolo Record hubs and Challenge Paris Roubaix Tubulars Campagnolo Record medium reach brakes (pre-1978) w/ new Kool Stop pads. NR levers Cinelli bar and stem ('80s) Brookes Professional Saddle (still trying to break it in...) MKS Supreme pedals w/ MKS Deep Toe Clips with vintage Alfredo Binda toe straps Peter Chisholm has been so generous with his amazing help in keeping this rig rolling. He built the wheels and more.

That is a supremely cool race bike tribute.

well that is amazing
have you already posted before about the choice to do this versus ride a, say, '76 Masi, or something else from the era with the rear re-set to 130?

That’s pretty slick.

Incredibly cool! Looks like a blast to ride, classic looking yet practical.
I can't help but ask what's up with the bar tape job? Otherwise, the bike is so dialed. |
