Buon lavoro:):)
Solo per curiosità, hai mai visitato Brindisi? È lì che ho vissuto in Italia dal 1986 al 1990. Mi sono innamorato della bicicletta quando il nostro padrone di casa mi ha regalato una bellissima bicicletta Bianchi che era appartenuta a suo figlio morto in un incidente automobilistico.

As promised here are the latest pictures. I feel I have finally completed this bike. The final touch was putting on the braided silver Jagwire cable and brake hoses.

Believe it or not that is really snow on the ground in Texas.. I love riding to work in it, especially on the Jekyll!

Edit: In case anyone is curious, the frame protectors are Dios de los muertos (Day of the Dead) from Rie:sel Designs. It's my favorite "holiday" because it also happens to be my birthday, so I chose to add a little personal touch to the bike.

I am just "special" when it comes to that kind of stuff. Kind of like how I HAD to use the Magura adapters and rotors with the Magura brakes, or better yet the Shimano centerlock adapters with the Shimano wheels.. Still I love how the bike came out. I still need to pick up the Nobby Nic's for it (it's got Schwalbe tubes so of course I have to have their tires too). I am also going to pic up a Lezyne multi-tool for it, plus a few other Wolftooth items.. so I guess it is not really FINISHED yet.
