Still waiting on pedals and seatpost, but I’m impatient to share now that it’s ridable. I love vintage steel, but wanted a modern setup. Best of both world, I hope. Grant Petersen designed no less.
== 1989 Bridgestone RB-1 ==
- Full R7000 105 11 speed mechs, brakes
- Shimano RS100 wheels (because I’m cheap)
- Soma quill stem, Soma Highway One bars
- Calculated 23.4lbs / 10.6kg
What that California bike scene is doing nowadays (the steel frames made at MaxWay) from Rivendell to Sklar, is just beautiful. I personally love the Black Mountain bikes, maybe someday…
