Rossin

I just got this frame and I am not going to restore it; I plan to put my Ultegra 6700 groupset on it. I need a good reliable second bike when the Sprint Rocket is getting work done or it's raining.

You need to put a NSFC&V(Not Safe For Classic and Vintager's) in the title because the Sprint Rocket gave me nightmares. Good lord that thing looks like a beast and fillings fell out just looking at that. lol.

As for the 6700 group...Colors between the two are pretty dramatic. If the Rossin had some darker colors or something instead of the white it could pull it off. It'd still be cool and I love seeing new groups on nice steel frames.

Man, that is one fugly bike.

The Rossin looks like it has potential, though. Probably way too heavy for a guy like you, however.
