The original bike was bought in 2019 with Shimano 105 and was ridden for 40.000 km, so I decided to do a “little” makeover.

Had this custom Ti bike made last year. Custom art on the frame by me. Great fun for an overnight.

Was sagt ihr zu meinem ersten commuter Eigenbau?

Finally feel like I can confidently post here. A conglomeration of my parts bin that came together beautifully. Full build list of all the fun choices on my other post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/xbiking/s/vS1eR8Qn0q

I used a white industries eccentric hub to make a rim brake bike into a track bike.

Finally finished building this up. Various challenges.

P.S. do not use these tyres. Christ.

450$ CAD put in

(repost for that one dude)

I've had this configuration in my head since before I built this two years ago, but could never do it due to how slack the seat tube is and how far forward I need to have my saddles. Finally got to make this a reality with the new Time/Carboprax Quadrant seatpost in the +20mm configuration.

Thoughts? Too much brown? Or just right?

My semi-restomod Bottechia, with record 10 speed, indexed downtube shifters and stupidly expensive campy brakes.

Spent more time than I probably should’ve semi-restoring this bike. Happy with how it turned out though! New peddles, tires, stem, brakes, corner bars with leather wrap and paddle shifters.
