I built the bike Thursday evening and took the photos Friday morning before the maiden ride to work. I had to use a microfiber towel on the frame and rims every other minute during the build because I kept leaving smudge marks on them. The tires came off my Guerciotti on Tuesday and the cranks, dropbars/stem and chain off my RRA on Wednessday. They were reasonably clean. The rims and spokes are new.

I like the way the sun glares off different spots in each picture.

Lovely build with this paramount and I can see the appeal in these bikes.

I had to buy a tandem cable
