Mine's a Vaya, but a Ti Fargo is basically my dream bike. Planning to build myself a Fargo/retroMTB inspired frame out of Reynolds 921 in the near future.

True, but I think a little goes a long way. Otherwise you end up with lampre merida and small children cry when you cycle past. If I did go monotone it would have to be black hoods anyway.

Mid 90s Pro(?)

Any idea what this is? Thinking it might make a good winter bike. That said it's probably some sort of ungodly mashup of frame and parts, but I haven't the foggiest

This is a pretty unique forum, good to see stuff like this exists! I definitely fit the bill, I have a weird build. I'm 6ft and ~240lb but don't really look it. While I'm steadily building legs like...

Appraisal and details 90s(?) Concorde Columbo
