Here is my current bicycle project. Start point was regular Rossin Ghibli
road frame. I made track pursuit frame out of it. Front forks came from Bianchi
Time Trial bike. Wheels are 28" and 26". Front one is old 80's Silva alloy disc
and the rear is "no name" trispoke from USSR, its carbon and very light.

See more at my SITE

next project is 80's 2cv custom matching to this bike Wink

these past few days I was doing some work on my girl's bike. She wanted a new colour (the metalic orange with the silver tribal "tatoo" was a bit too much in the first place),

so i came up with this (she wanted some light colours on the frame) Ivory gloss and flat black details, all the work was, again, done in my flat hehe some of that (painting and sanding and wood works at the balcony and all the rest in the dining room hehe...she's now on the scolarship untill 1st of march and I'm home alone with our bikes and the dog)

must do some final touches like connecting the lights, and putting the chain back on and pumping some air into the tires but i must say that I like the result..

must find a way to fit it on the roofrack of the Ami

well the seat is her problem hahaha she should choose it herself, the best that i can get around here and off the shelf is by far a choice of Brooks saddles

Dule! It looks quite much better now!

I have been working last days with "chopper10". I made everything for it, including rims.

At the moment its painted black and waiting for final assembly.
This bike i made actually a bit for sale. Too bad sending shit out from
Finland is hell expensive.

tnx Olli
just seen your chopper this mornig on you site, must say pretty amazing...always wondered how do you make a rim? you make everything from scratch or do you have axels ready made?

Hey, rim and hub are recycled material. So they are stock bicycle pieces.
I dont find that green bike very attractive, looks heavy and clumsy.
Also any lines does not match.
