Thanks! I'm very pleased with this bicycle. Although it's not top end, the ride quality is excellent.
Neither... it's Dolmen (Pinarello propietary tubing, made by Dedacciai, I guess)

Who needs stickies? Keep adding cool bikes....
And revive a great old thread...
OK, blatantly showing off my lovely, rare, old (November 1947), high-mileage (124,000miles recorded), under-used (by me), English, hand-made, Reynolds 531 Thanet Silverthan.
Chrome plated and all.

Has original Chater Lea chain-wheel, pedals, large flange hubs.

Reynolds, stem, seat-post and Marsh pattern bars.

Lytaloy brakes and levers with quick release. (+ Coolstop pads!)
Note the T incorporated in the lugs.
And head-set oil nipple.
Plus another on the BB in the distance.

Has original Brooks B17 Champion Quality saddle, with copper rivets and beautiful patina, and Brooks, leather covered saddle bag support.
Blumels Airlite Guards/fenders.
Dunlop White Sprite tyres. (A spare pair of NOS came with it.)
Currently waiting for appropriate bar-tape....
And, just to finish, you can also see it, in illustrious company, here:

campy/cinelli/binda/dugast/wooden rims...

vintage and modern together. my primary ride. zipp/cinelli/araya/phil/campy/thomson/brooks

sturmey archer ASC 3 speed fixed cyclocross cruiser/path racer. i raced this in the santa cruz wildcat and won first fixed gear. so fun!

the former rain bike. vintage campy/sachs new success mix. since sold back to previous owner.

3Rensho + chronos track hub prototypes. also had it set up as a more purist track build sold due to poor fit.
and this wasnt mine, nor is it vintage (vintage inspired!!) but something I built for a customer. scorcher inspired city speedster. TI/carbon seven converted to 1x6 set up with a paul thumbie and nitto northroad bars. stupid amounts of fun.
