This has got to be one of the cleanest Klein Attitudes that I’ve ever seen! It’s even got the Precision Billet ProShift derailleurs! As I clean the drool from my desk, I’ll direct you to some more photos of this beautiful bicycle below.

I’ll admit it, I full geeked out when I first saw this 1990 Roy Cottingham Record Lo-pro. I don’t think I’d ever want to ride such a bike, but Columbus Record tubing, the Corima carbon 4-spoke, Mavic SSC rear derailleur, and drilled frame/lugs surely make for a killer lo-pro. I mean, look at that fork crown! The paint is rad too, reminds me of a bruised banana.
See some more shots from Rookilo below, and read up on the full build on RetroBike.

A nice display of old-school mountain bike jerseys at Monkeywrench Cycles. This reminds me, I still have my Toy Soldiers jersey given to me by my coach Dan back in the day (when I was racing w/ Team Colavita). I’ll have to take a couple photos of it.

After fully geeking-out at Sunshine Roleur’s photostream, I came across the Merckx Corsa Extra and really became fixated on the paint! I’m a life-long and devoted Bianchi fan as well as an admirer of Merckx, so this frame hit it home for me. If you’ve got some time to burn, browse (or bookmark and save it for later) through this Flickr stream, you won’t be disappointed.

This 1894 Clement 3-wheeler from Collectvelo is one of the raddest adult tricycles I’ve seen, ever. Check out that lantern and rear axle design.

I bet this photo has you drooling already. This Chiossi Cycles Maino frame was originally built in the 1940s and I’m sure it had lots of love throughout it’s life, but no love like Paolo Chiossi gave to it. He removed the cable and pump bosses, gave it this lovely eggplant paint job, and built up a nice pair of wooden Ghisallo rims. The bike features a dynamo front hub and a 3-speed coaster in the rear, both Sturmey-Archer of course. Check out a few of my favorite shots below and make sure to head over to Cycle EXIF for the full story. Continue reading “Beauties: Chiossi Cycles Maino 3-Speed” »
I was stumbling around earlier and came across these which have been around for sometime now, but certainly deserve a second mention. These shoes come in 2 styles, Track and Tourer, see more here.
