Wherever you lay your helmet...
NICE TIPS!
Distractions
Like George Michael says
Two things.

Customised saddles from the capital of cool.

busyman bicycles

customised bikes, hand crafted leather saddles, bar covers, toe straps & a phd..
MP shows us three of his latest. 

The rolls is naturally my favourite.  Almost as nice as dropping your deriere on a chesterfield.

Back to the grind.
We're working on a very, very nice Colnago Master-light project.

This Colnago Master Light (Saronni Red) with steel precisa fork.

and a fully pantographed Campagnolo Super Record gruppo.

Of course, fusing old with new has it's charms / headaches but there is nothing we haven't thought of.

Part I


Levers. 

Before / after.

Working on these old beauties is like meccano.  Pull them apart, do the work, put them back together.

Bellisima!

Next year?

More restorations, and inspirations and advice. 

More articles.

More pularva.

More hot girls on even hotter bikes, and no broken bones.

I'm excited.





...and hopefully more riding.
