What's in the Workstand ? ?

[retropean]

Got a new stem and some white bar tape on the Colorado and I reckon it’s looking pretty smart. Only thing left is to find a matching set of water bottle cages. A pair of lighter wheels would be overkill for what it is but I’d probably jump on them if I found a deal.

Edit- also the more I look at this photo the more I think about swapping the seat post to something that would match the stem.

3Rensho finally arrived!

Another USPS issue... just happy to have it and wasn't a scam.

Straight out of the box. Not yet cleaned.

Oh my! I think we ride similarly sized frames......

I accidentally ended up with another steel bike... Amazing craftsmanship on this frame...

gbcoupe, you sure have a lot of nice bikes.

Right now, my Soma Smoothie is on one of my repair stands and has been for 5 days. I am waiting on a new Shimano freehub for a Campy Zonda wheel. I had to look around a good bit on the web to find a reasonably priced one that was in stock, Chain Reaction Cycles. Somehow I managed to strip the threads on the original while changing an11-32 cassette to a new 11-28. The wait is not a big deal, but the Smoothie has become probably my all around favorite to ride.

That a beauty.

I'll snag that blue and yellow Serotta and we can have a race somewhere along the border.

Happens to me all the time.

Nice teaser pic. Almost bought a Cyfac a few years ago. Same red. Talked myself out of it. Wish I hadn't.

Thanks. Going to be difficult trying to decide which ones to keep. I need to be at about half in the next year or two!

Had a Salsa Casseroll twice, but never a Soma. Nice looking bikes.

It's on! My Giordana is pretty close to Buckeye colors. It's never going to sell... might as well build it back up.

I had to put the SBC all-road back on the stand to swap out the 6° stem for a 17° since the HT is really tall. I’m also contemplating whether or not I should remove the Sram 1x drivetrain and build it back up with Campy 11 shifters and derailleurs.

What's better than one Sachs?

Or that's the theory I'm testing - shall see after the first ride tomorrow....weather permitting..

You’re a madman!

Small victories, but I did the first ever wrap job that I’m mostly pleased with. I’m absolutely terrible at it.

Also fitted my new steel fork to my Seven, as well as some wider, shorter reach bars.
