Pinarello Complete! Very pretty bike inside...
Just got my new saddle and bar tape, so I figured it was picture worthy now. It's a 1991 Pinarello Veneto. It's got the original 600 group with Campagnolo Delta wheels. The only thing I need for it still is a 120mm stem, then it should be a perfect ride. Did 50 mi on it yesterday and felt a wee cramped, but nothing terrible. Was able to keep up just fine with the local training ride and smoked most of the group in the sprints even. It's fit like most Italian bikes... small. It's a 58. How's it look?

i jam my thumbs up and back into the tubes. this way i can point my fingers straight out in front to split the wind and attain an even more aero profile, and the usual fixed gear - zen - connectedness feeling through the drivetrain is multiplied ten fold because my thumbs become one with the tubing.

I finished this build about 2 weeks ago. Its a 1998 Pinarello Treviso cyclocross. I got the frame & fork on ebay after it had been custom painted. I decided to build it as a roadie instead of a cross bike. I put Campy Veloce all around including the ultra torque compact crank. Campy proton wheels, Michelin pr2s, Thomson seatpost and assorted other goodies. I love this bike, I dont feel nearly as cramped on it as my other Pinarello.
No I wont flip it

Needs campy.
Please align cranks before taking pictures.
Valve stems aren't lined up consistently on both tires.
Otherwise, that bike is beautiful.

Pinny's - of all types and vintages - rule!
Very nice bike. Looks great. With Campy including Delta brakes it would be to kill for.

Its very nice, but it DOES need Campy. A friend asked me to tune up his old Pinny recently, and it had all the original Pantographed Super Record stuff on it, i was just sick. He had apparently been using tree sap to lube the chain, but once it was clean, it was BREATHTAKING. Black, white saddle, white bar tape, white logos. Simply magnificent.
