My singlespeed ride is a Ciocc Mockba 80 with mostly Campagnolo trim. It rolls on Mavic G40s and 23mm Challenge Criterium tires. 65 gear inches with a 42t chainring and 17t rear sprocket. Paint is very rough with a lot of brush applied touch-up work. I acquired the frame after a front-ender produced small bulges behind the head tube lugs. A local-to-me framebuilder straightened this to the spec head tube angle in about 5 minutes. Fork is non-original .... scored it at the 2023 Seattle Swap for $10. The freewheel is an older Sun Tour 5-speed with one threaded cog and a polished aluminum cover that I machined from some scrap aluminum. It's a fun ride.
