Hi from the UK
Permalink Closed


Hi from the UK,

I am a 26 year old Architect from the UK. I am passionate about bicycles and have been building / riding for many years. 

I currently ride a Cinelli for everyday use and also own a Nagasawa track bike, my pride and joy, build after many months scouring the world for components.

I have recently been working on a 1980's Italian Road Bicycle using refined components to create a vintage build that stands shoulder to shoulder with its modern day lightweight counterparts. 

Hope to talk to you on that forum. 

Paul

Welcome to the form Paul

 

Which year is your Cinelli? Cinelli is very popular here too. I too have a 98's Super Corsa.

If I'm honest... my Cinelli is one of the more modern Aluminium models. I built for ease and simplicity around the city. I am looking to replace this full time, soon with a high spec vintage road build. The Super Corsa is beautiful and timeless. If I could find one for a price that wasn't unrealistic I think this could be my next project.

Thanks,

That looks fun. There seems to be a drought of 7 speed frames at the moment. Will try to keep you updated.
Building the wheels this weekend. Wolber Super Champion Alpine 36H NOS with Dura Ace 7400 hubs. Slightly concerned about the reliability of the Uniglide cassette. Hopefully the wheels will ride well.
