Chesini...Finished.
Here's some OK pics of the Chesini build, finished.
I do still have a few nicks to touch-up and some polishing to do.
I'm also considering switching to black tape with white stitching.
Lastly, the wheels are still borrowed from the Calfee...black A23s on silver hubs to follow...

Thanx Guys...much appreciated.
This is my first EL-OS frame...I got in a short ride Friday...although it was quite windy here.
I think this thing will be a rocket. It has the snap that I like (like my Gilmour) but has the stability of the De Rosa, which I always attributed to the BB design and Diamante stays, and is probably due here to the bladed stays and tube diameters at the BB, along with the compact/stiffer design.
We'll see how it climbs as well...that is still up in the air.
