I have a pair of those Gipemme wheels in the garage. Sorta. Mine were imported by a SoCal team from Italy before they were available in the US

Might start being easier to buy bikes that fly under the radar but still have the kit you're looking for.

This is a friend’s COVID project.
A Daccordi Griffe that he picked up some years ago. He has no idea why there aren’t decals on it. Paint was on the bike when purchased. If a repaint, it’s flawless; no runs or sags.
Vintage frame with modern components.
I like the lugs.

The Force AXS group set is coming in part by part. I’m still waiting for the Shifters and rotors. But it’s in the works now.

Oh, that's nice! Almost for sure a repaint. Who cares? Useable art.

Mine has quite a few chips and touch-ups, but the paint is so beautiful, I can't justify a re-work. Same minus webbed lugs.

So close, yet so far. One of the "shrouds" for the brakes was threaded incorrectly. It's super hard stainless steel so I can't fix it any of the normal ways and I had to order another one. I could contact hope but frankly I don't want to wait that long. Anyways it just needs the front brake hooked up (when I get the shroud) and pedals. Projected weight with pedals = high 17 low 18lb.

Force shifters Rival cranks/RD
Hope RX4 brakes
Shimano rotors
Sram Rise 60 carbon wheels 650b
Enve seatpost and stem
Zipp SL70 bars wrapped all the way
WTB senderos that I will probably change to thunder burts

wow mtech, that bike looks great. i like the off white/cream color and grey accents. very classy.

that's a really respectable weight with that kind of rubber on there, disc etc.

well done!

Put your pedals and cages on and show weight again. You can't ride it without those

Thanks Angry! It should be a big upgrade from my old cyclocross bike.

Jokes on you because I don't have any pedals or cages for it and I can't ride it. The front brake isn't hooked up either! I'm guessing it will end up a little over 18lbs. Maybe 18.1 lbs.

getting closer. it's a slow process to make sure you don't screw it up. But it'll look awesome and stealth with no graphics.

Currently in Bingham's stand, soon to be mine!

Bianchi Project 3- nothing original left! sram xx group, 42/28, hurricane ridge tires. needs some grips!! pretty pleased its 24 lbs with cages and pump.

frame and fork are more lively than a similar era 26" hardtail, has a long tt , but not super slow steering. big wheels are great for the terrain near me. perfect for riding from my house to the trails and back on pavement

an inexpensive and fun project

And here I am scared to take sandpaper to a Deda carbon post that has gaudy graphics.....

Curious to see the final product but also a bit in disbelief - I think the latest Campagnolo stuff is gorgeous out the box!
