That one is really sharp!

I just came home from a first check up ride after building this up this morning. Been a while since i had an all steel bike built up (well long enough to have it feel different).

My girlfriend has one exactly the same, will take some his n hers shot one of these days. Maybe i will even have bartape by then .)

Only had white at home and something tells me black is the way to go with this one as every stuttgart ive googled has white tape (more or less).

Looking good Björn! I agree, black tape would look good. Maybe Cinelli kaleido could bring out the green and pink?

Hey Thanks!

Yeah not a bad suggestion actually. Will have to see whats available at the stores around here. Soon i will take delivery of my Tomassini so i can start to obsess about details on that instead Just want this one done and ready tbh .)

Black tape, no question. That bicycle needs the most discreet bar tape, to exalt everything else.

And, your girlfriend's bicycle needs silver stem/silver seatpost.

Can't really say, mine is pretty average.

But, I am fairly certain that the kindest minds treat their girlfriend's bicycles with the complete care, love, and respect that they deserve.
