Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Gios Megalite

So I got my hands on a Gios Megalite frame (circa 2000). It has a few battle scars and scuffs and is very much still a work in progress.

I'll be fitting: Campagnolo Veloce shifters and mechs, Khamsin wheels (until I get some handbuilts), Centaur standard double UT chainset, Evans seatpost, Zenith 110mm stem, Deda Speciali bars, white Arione, white tape.









This is what it currently looks like... not quite finished:
