Of course everyone loves their bike, but post one that you've always considered the best
Just clean and what caught my eye to the Kilo TT

Oh Squeegee, remember how you said you rarely see a multi-speed with pursuit bars?
I saw one the other day, the set up was pretty similar to that one but it had down tube shifters. Couldn't tell what bar it was though, wrapped all the way to the stem.

I might do that once I get the '82 Medici road bike from the storage. all original parts. campy groupo. hasnt been touched for years. It has a cinelli bar at the moment. I should just keep it that way though... changing it would totally be a disgrace to such a nice bike.

Pretty damn good. It seems like they bought it, used it for awhile and forgot about it. It has no rust, no scratch, no dings. flat tires, dry leather parts, and thats about it. Looks like its been untouched for years.
Sorry for the crap pic, i had to use my phone.

Mhm, I'll probably get it restored with the help of the guys at my LBS. They've been in buisness since the 20's, so they know what they are doing. I am sure they'll be happy to see such a beautiful bike!

I'd restore the hell out of that bike myself, but I don't think I have a clue where to get period-correct parts though.
Back to the thread...taken from the track section.

I was going to post that! Such an awesome bike. Granted the wheels are paired spoke crap but aesthetically it's great. I love this one too:

I'm sort of confused as to how either of those bikes are fixed/SS.
And touche Scrod, well played.
