Finally got around to getting this all put together. Have some new Veloflex tubulars on the way, but otherwise this is more or less complete. Still considering an all-black seatpost and black cages,...

I'm sure some of you have seen my request for black anodized/painted vintage components over in the C&V Sales section, so this build won't be a complete surprise. But for those who haven't, I'm...

Looking for a few things to complete an upright commuter bike. Has Huret dropouts, so I have mostly French bits on there (Huret, TA), but open to anything really. It's more or less a parts bin bike. ...

Was hoping to find some more information on this 1960/61?, Bianchi Specialissima I picked up a few months back. It's a bit smaller than I usually ride, so it may not be here to stay, but wanted to...

I'll have to double check tonight, but from what I recall my frame takes a 26.4mm seatpost. I believe mine is one year earlier than yours, so that may explain the difference. Took a couple more...
