Rob’s Battaglin Road Build

posted by on 2012.05.17 , under Bike Porn, Photography, Road Frame

Rob found this vintage Battaglin frame and was determined to build it up with some nice vintage parts. We have all been there before right? What starts out as a simple project turns into a much more complicated drawn out process. Rob has been stopping by the shop pretty much every weekend this year in search of the right parts for his frame. The parts we didn’t have led to some deeper searching and after some good luck on ebay Rob had accumulated all the necessary bits. Then came our task of putting this beauty together. We are pretty excited with how it came out and Rob is pretty stoked too!

We just finished this great Customized Bianchi Pista Via Brera for Mary. She was in the market for a new bike for this summer and the Pista Via Brera spoke to her. With a few nice mods in the form of a Brooks B17s Saddle and a Velo Orange cruiser bar the bike was set up how she likes and ready for some fun in the sun! Enjoy it Mary!

My Superb Sprint

After putting in a bunch of miles on our Sprint Prototype I finally decided it was time to build myself one. I had one painted in sky blue metallic and I am really happy with how it turned out. The metallic flake is very understated but when the sun hits it, it really shines! I decided on black components to offset the light hue of the frame and I think the contrast really works, and it helps the gum wall tires pop. I have been commuting on it a few days now and I am super stoked with it. I went with some larger than average tires because of the number of horrible roads on my commute and the stiff frame and larger tires really work well to give an efficient buy comfortable ride. To fit the larger tires I used the standard brake hole fork, but had it plugged before it was painted. Well here is the components breakdown.
