I have a feeling that bike is significantly newer than you think it is. It appears to have identical lugging etc to my bomber which was made in '04. None-the-less I would say it flows as well if not better than this bike
which you liked a lot and it has a ton of newer parts on it and was manufactured in '01.

dead pic. but i assume you are talking about the yellow remminton, which is much more tastefully put together than that bomber, you really think that fat bladed fork looks proper on that frame, threaded none the less?

IMO a lugged steel frame should have a lugged fork. I think an aero fork belongs on an aero frame, or at least an aluminum or carbon frame. they just look weird on lugged steel.

^ that looks much better. no lugs, aero downtube, smaller blades on the fork... it actually matches.

the bomber and that hideous fork do not go well together

Yea it was the reminton. I don't like the fork on the bomber but other than that it's not that bad, here's another pic of it w/ a legit fork...



Basically give or take the same as this bike

I love these pictures of Massans bike. A little over a year ago Huf put a series of 3 track bikes out for the shop as window displays. After the displays came down the employes got first dibs on the bikes. We adapted the original etch-a-sketch logo and city scape that I created to work on the frames. I am glad that Massan got this frame he rides it and shows it the love it deserves. If we ever do something like this again I am definitely going to cop one. I slept last time. I believe the pics came from HP

i saw that today...why do people do left side drivetrains? won't the pedals come undone?

here is my bike as of a couple minutes ago

things which are getting done:
1. repack all loose ball components
2. buy proper length'd spokes and nipples to rebuild wheels
3. sell my last hkk vertex chain
4. buy more components
5. build another...bike? maybe japanese? maybe italiano

sounds like a nice overhaul on your bike. my new bike should be cool when its done.
