consider getting it redecaled = nobody will think you're on bianchi anymore :D
plus the first link below is seriously classy and would fit the frame nicely in black lettering.

not much to trade right now. Probably wait till I graduate and get a real job to rebuild this bike. Just thinking out loud... err thinking in type.

I removed the mirror-polished brake/lever for a trade and--for the nitpickers--the front wheel was flipped and I just never flipped the tire. Those are Canadian nickles acting as pedal caps, mais ce vélo est seperatist!

I finally got to taking a photo because a) it's f'ucking snowing today, b) it's now on the trading block, mainly to fund my next ride but also because I'm doing some overseas moving (not conducive to shiny Italian bikes).

HOly **** that is nice.

I'm putting this together for a friend who is new to single speeds. if she doesnt like it, i can always use it as a rain bike. its an old univega frame and a cheap wheelset from a bikesdirect motobecane. i have both drop bars or cruiser bars. i still need brakes and a chain. i'm considering a coaster brake rear wheelset from nycbikes.com, but she'll have to come up with the money for that. The old-fashioned seatpost is on backwards (i just noticed), but i'll be putting a newer alloy one on anyway.

Drops pls.

Looks good though. I'd like to be that friend.

ROFL cruiser bars. You win!

I_luv_hooters 04-04-08 06:35 PM

^ its just a bike for fun. nobody's trying to be NJS here, so cruiser bars are fine.

Batson 04-04-08 06:46 PM

just wondering but ive done alittle bit of research and i cant find anything on romani frames or let alone anything about them

can anyone shed some light?

Whoever made them probably didn't expect to see them be turned into fixies thirty years later.
