Jon, that is one beautiful looking bike.


I think it woud look better with black comp III's, but not much better.  But that is the racer in me, thinking that.

Ever watched the kellogs series,  wayne llewelyn, racing white tyres, LOL

Come on you know this bike was just a piece of eye candy !   and they are IRC Racer tires,

Need to make sure all the buiilds look different !

Personally, I would never race with white tyres, after one use they would make your bike look crap as they would be off white tYres

LOL

I did see that, but he looked stupid  :LolLolLolLol:

She is a beauty mate and I know what you mean about the eye candy, its just me, whenever I have put white tyres on any of my bikes I just can't handle it.

But then what do I know, I am full of crap!!!

Jon ,

Are they Campy hubs as well ?

Did the frame come like that or who did your powder (or wet) ?

Looks cool by the way  :daumenhoch:

Just stunning!

Whoever, Biagio uses certainly know their onions!!

I assume it is a candy blue, was that an original colourway for the frame? I have seen a few red ones but not blue.

Hi Jon

 :4_17_5:

That is just f**king amazing. It shines like a new pin.

A real piece of eye candy, and I doubt anyone could ever get bored of looking at.

The only thing i'd do is line up the tyre logo on the front wheel either at 180 degrees (like the back wheel), or put both logo's over the valve (just me being picky.... :-X)

You have some great builds and I'd love to see a full photo shoot of them.

Long may you enjoy it.

J.

Nice jon. Gives me a bit of inspiration for what to do with my standard long. I have got a bunch of campy hubs and cranks, just have to get round to polishing them. Are they c-record or super record hubs, big fookin difference qua price. The americans go nuts for the c-records, 3-500 dollars a pair used. I picked up  nos 600's in the box not long ago and put them on the laserlite. When i get round to it i will shove em all on the bay. I have to get some jmc bars. I have kept a red dx post for it and would like to put red dx cranks on too. Can't be arsed though too busy. I will make them clips asap, first a prototype then the rest are easy. Sweet build as usual mate, where next???

Jon that one is vying for best ever JMC build with me. Absolutely lovely.

You should stick your collection on eBay and then withdraw it ahead of sale. It'd send the stock market into panic.
