Hot!

kinda classy looking, but i say u still need clips and toestraps

lol what? b123s are dirt cheap in japan.

love the lugged jam.

Yeah, skidding isn't a problem at all. I don't really dig that hand position (at the top) so it's not a loss. Maybe I'll learn to like it and get some bar tape, who knows.

Actually, I meant to say these bars suck cause you can't barspin with them.

Skatescool, I aspire to your level of awesomeness! Can you please give us some details about the bike: frame, components, etc... Well done.

Yeah, the Team and the Pro are the exact same aside from the bolts (TI vs SS). But, the Team also comes in a -17 degree version that the Pro does not.

ok I just hate the Masi Soulville. I think I hate everything about it. At least this one doesn't have a v-brake.
on the other hand, I think SkatesCool has posted the most awesome bike currently in memory (although my memory for bikes only lasts 3-5 days at this point)

Finally got my latest done, and this one's finally going to be a keeper (sold off the last two). Frame is an '86 Centurion Accordo, crank is Shimano 600, brakes are Shimano 105 single pivot aero's, SPD pedals, Shimano RSX front hub . . . . . . and tubular rims and tyres. Gearing is currently 42/17 fixed, 42/16 SS. I live in hilly country.

I added some vintage Blumel Popular mudguards as the bike is going to be my bad weather trainer, as possibly have a rack or two added as a fixed gear tourer. Urban riding is going to be minimal, probably the most use along those lines will be for my Saturday commute to work (20 miles each way).

top of the bend is the only position i can understand. with the grips where they are these are effectively cruiser bars. perfect for pulling up on and for maintaining lateral stability, but with your hands in that position you cannot efficiently skid. you can't shift your weight to the front wheel properly to engage a skid. the leverage is just all wrong.

and if you can't barspin, gtfo.

you would think youd have gotten the ironic decals out of your system by the second one.

V-Brakes are awesome, what's wrong with you?

I like that.

thats makes me want a masi. its so pretty

i'm lame, i know, but i like it

john wilkes booth? killey whitey? no problem with the wu, though.

What irony? As I heavily collect vintage frames (well, as heavily as my funds will allow), I'm a religious believer in not cutting off braze-ons, hangers, etc. This frame was blasted and thinly powder coated. Period.

other than him being pro-confederacy, i thought he was a smart guy. and he didn't like something, and did something about it. that's pretty cool.

kill whitey is a sweet album by a crappy punk band i like. i'm not racist.

he's talking about your stupid sticker.
without that, the bike would be fine

SkatesCool, that is one of the most beautiful bikes I think I've ever seen! The colors are perfect. 100% class. What is the frame?

skatescool, for a bike that looks like a lot of time has gone into making it look a certain way, you sure could've remembered to take the valve caps off.
and +1 for clips and straps.

Seriously, no barspins no care.

Nice.
