Bought this frame set when they first came out, opened the box to check it, then packed it back in the box, as it sat for a year and 1/2, until I started building it. Had to wait for the Profile Retro cranks to be made, along with hunting for parts. Finally finished her yesterday when I received the re issue comp II's. Nothing special, but I dig. Rides sweet !!!!!

Post by: gobshite on January 11, 2010, 01:20 PM: thats really rather pretty,

love the polished stuff, profile ,king, paul brake are all good,

just needs a profile seat-clamp to match the stem,polish the stem spacer rings,
polished thomson would be nice too,

dunno about the modern dx's though ???

Post by: Surf911s on January 11, 2010, 08:27 PM: Thanks everybody !!!!!!

I'm not feeling the seatclamp either. Will pick up a Profile one, once I figure out the correct size. Whats a thomson ????

The modern day DX's feel pretty good. I'm just not digging the color of them. Nothing on this bike was polished before install, but might polish up these DX's. Somebody has a pair of these pedals that they did polish, and they really look nice.
