2002 Fuji Roublaix completely rebuilt from the ground up.
Powder coated the frame, new groupset, wheel bearings/freehub, headset/bar/stem, etc. Still debugging and few minor details to take care of but 99.9% done. I wrenched everything myself except truing the wheels. 18.4 lbs as pictured. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mgnido1g8d...s.019.jpg?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/n1iuicw0ci...t.004.jpg?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/hnbtoa82jb...s.013.jpg?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/7t2pdhuth8...s.016.jpg?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/orieyis3hi...s.010.JPG?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/o1l4xsz1lm...s.020.jpg?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/a8cd7of2zy...s.015.jpg?dl=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/22yq7u6t6l...s.009.JPG?dl=1 |

Very nice! Somewhat plain, but very good looking and nicely put together.
We are scouring the interwebz for the correct decals but can't seem to find them and will likely email velocals.com to see if they can be made.

Very nice build. Check those rear pads, they look a little high to me.

It is. I wanted to get some pics up as the Olympics and the vids online don't do the frame justice. The color change is far more gradual than the vids show. Rode a century this weekend in the hot humid South East. The frame was orange or some mix orange/yellow (as in the pic) far longer than I expected.

Why isn't the top tube decal visible in the first photo? I think that it looks much better without, in any event. |
