Steel, mechanical, rim, and Campagnolo. I can’t think of a more pure form for a bicycle.

After having this frame sit for a while, it is finally in the stand (although may be another few weeks before it’s on the road).

+1

Built this over the winter, checks your boxes I think. Need to cut the steers once I decide it's main use/stack desired.

Not got much love just yet. Too many bikes, not enough weather [or too much] this year so far.

Wow, some great bikes here. I posted my '88 Serotta Nova Special in the Production Bike Forum recently.

I guess I never shared this one after it was built up. Mid 90's Giordana XL Super. 17 lbs and 14 ozs as in this picture and one wonderful ride.

Yeah, I've got the steel bug. Ignore the carbon Assos.

Sorry, pics look worse than the usual suckage.

@gbcoupe YOU WIN! Man. That's a lotta bikes!

Between us we probably have all the old Flite saddles. Fortunately I like the gel models and you seem to prefer the standard, so we're not stepping on each other's toes.

Nah, others here have more. Jamesdak a couple posts up. Guessing Angry, in both quantity and quality. Not aiming for a crown by any means.

I've wondered at times if I've helped boost the market price on Flite TT's.

Your Davidson looks great by the way. Nice work on refinishing the paint!
