The R3V Bicycle Thread

[SchnellerVert]

I have a MB-zip so I still like the older hard to find Bridgestones. Most of my bikes are steel. Love the adage steel is real.

I did recently purchase a Specialized Allez Comp double. Ouch 550 for it new left over. But it has a FSA crank and full 105 groupo on it.

Your Bridgestone has Suntour stuff on it?

so i stumbled across my old mans 1976 schwinn varsity 10 spd in the garage and fixed it up earlier today...cleaned it, repacked the bearings, relubed everything, new white cork bartape...picking up new tires/tubes/seat next week and it'll be ready to rock. check out them ballin wheels, 27s FTMFW!!



it'll work for now. im scouting craigslist daily for my own classic bike to build a fixie out of cuz i'll pass on droppin 600 for a new pista or 750 for a new specialized. so hopefully i'll find somethin in the next few weeks to build up.

Nice bikes guys!

I don't ride as much any more, but I'll share a few of our bikes,

I used to ride a colnago dream, Magnesium alloy frame, original ksyrium SL's, CF colnago forks, many other bits. Amazing bike, I loved it but unfortunately, this is all i have left of it, (makes for good eye candy)



Then there's my old trek which is what i ride now, Basic alloy frame, pretty heavy, Original ksyrium's, however one ate a pothole. so the backs just rolling stock atm.



Then there's my dads Colnago. another mag frame, Brand new Ksyrium SL's, latest and greatest everything else.



Other bits and peices include a ghetto rossi track bike dad plans to fix up one day, and the old pride and joy of my Trek, Some original Atlanta '96 olympic deep V rimZZ.

Lol You will have to excuse my terrible attempt at speed typing.

Heres the Rossin,
Like i said, ghetto. Definitely not one of the more extravogant paint jobs, but an absolute classic bike none the less.









And the Atlanta Campagnolo rims:







Cool stuff.

Oh yeh, we also got this sweet mavic disk floating around:
