As the OP originally stated...
Any steel-framed drop bar bike made in 1996 or after is welcome in this thread.
New frame, new components, its a gem!
And yes, pre 1996
design for sure. But hey, the comfort of the bar tape, broken in (hopefully) replica saddle and geometry shouts of modern comfort,
for that style of bike!
Nice sum of parts.
My retro bike posted above is also 2010 & newer frame & components.
Individuality is good! Not everyone wants modern steel
and aero disc brake wheels, though certainly nice...
I can hear the classic & vintage guys saying; nice new vintage style bike, but its not vintage in any way.
Hmmm...
