Cinelli XA stem with giro bars. and concor max saddle not rolls but I love the concor max so it's all good. awesome NISI mixer clinchers, pretty narrow though. decision time.. put the group on the faggin? I know it would be more period than the super record on it now.... find a new frame? ride it with a longer stem and just enjoy on sunny days?
You and I have a lot in common. Every time I pick up another frame or bike, it initiates the domino effect. Every bike in the stable gets rethought to find the best combinations. Some stuff gets changed but most not, but everything gets thought out. Fun but currently tough as I've picked up 2 bikes and 1 frame in the past month.

Congratulations on the purchase. Turns out I had the wrong Vancouver.

thanks Rad. I'm gonna put a longer seat post and a 13cm stem on it and ride..... It'll take a few good ride to really make a decision.

Helter, If I sell it will be the frame only. I REALLY like the fleur de lys so it's gonna be a hard decision to make. If you are interested in the frame set only I you can be the first to know should you be interested.

i put on a long seatpost and a 130mm cinelli stem with 65-44 criterium bars, the fit ain't bad but the drop it larger than I am used to. I'm gonna go out and do a Category 1 or 2 grade climb this afternoon and really get to know the group and bike

That would fit me.
While bikes are cheap in Saskatchewan the selection of rides like yours are very limited.
Beautiful bike.

Maple leaf cutouts, pantographed seat stay cap, fancy bridge with reinforcements, nice headlugs. I just adore those kind of details... And the components look new!

Thanks for sharing.

$500 CDN for that bike was a deal, even if it is beige. Congrats.

What kind of bar tape is that? I'm squinting at the screen, and can't decide whether it's tweed, faux snakeskin, or something else entirely. Looks pretty cool, though.

I think it is faux snake skin... it almost seems like leather but then I don't know... Either way it's pretty cool but a bit too short.

First Ride. Of course it rides amazing and the small frame sprinted like the thoroughbred race horse it is. did roughly 55km round trip and climbed a 12km or so route up one of our local mountains. I don't know what the gain was but I'm going to guess the summit was around 3000 feet give or take a few hundred. Bike climbed like a champion and descended like a bullet. Just awesome.

That's a beautiful bike, must have been a big hit in Quebec!
