That ritchey is begging for a black nitto steel stem and matching bar.

A chain, plus fine tuning cables and this Lobster will be ready to crawl

Timeless beauty right there. Nicely done.

Just finished up this 1974 Raleigh. One of the sweetest older bikes I've ever ridden

After reading the WI vs PHIL thread I felt the urge to finally replace my T11 hub bearings. I was able to source NTN and IJK bearings locally which is great; I even took a little cruise across town to pick them up!
All in, parts cost was $80.00 which is expensive compared to the Enduro brand that WI specs for their hubs but I really don't mind because they're being installed on a high-mileage workhorse and all-time favorite bike.

Now all you need is to go on a tour...

Rode it to the coffee shop today and loved it. I tend to move things along, but this may stay for a spell. Could be the go-to for rides with the kids and around town. And it at least invites me to dream about a tour. Need to keep my eyes open for vintage touring bags.

Cool lobster! Nice curve on that fork—looks like a lot of offset—is this one low trail?

Torelli Countach. Pretty much done swapping it from Ultegra 18 speed to Dura Ace 20 speed. 50/34t Crankset with an 11-28t cassette.

Nice snowy day project: In the spring I had November Bicycles build me a new set of wheels: green Industry Nine hubs for disc brakes, HED rims (the new "Eroica" or whatever name they've changed it to), RH knobby 38s. The wheels and my Firefly lived in a separate location from me while we were staying in Newport for most of the year (long Covid-related story), so I've only thrown them on the bike once before for a ride around the neighborhood. They look like they'll be super--they're now on the bike ready for gravel adventures the rest of this winter into the spring. Last photo is a Yeti tumbler from WBR for being on one of their advisory boards.

Almost there--bar tape, new bb cinch ring, different rear derailleur and it should be ready for a shakeout spin. This is the first time I have built a bike.

Last winter I had a Serotta Ottrott GS frame which I purchased from Mac Lynch / Cool Planet Bikes. It spent a couple of months in the stand while I built it up. This winter I have another frame in the stand I'm building up. Here are some teaser photos.

Hint: It's another Ti Carbon hybrid frame.
