Just got back from a 32 mile shake down ride and I had a blast! I can foresee SS becoming my weekend go-to. It's a 'french fit', to be sure, but it rides so smooth and silent. Very stoked on what turned out to be pretty much a parts bin build.




The deets, for those who care about such things (I know I would):

1980/1 (?) Centurion Super Le Mans, 23"
Sturmey Archer HBT30 32h track hubs with flip flop rear laced to Sun CR18 700c rims. Rear is spaced to 130. 18t Shimano freewheel/16T Redline track cog.
Panaracer Pasela Tour Guard 700 x 28
Sugino LP 170 crank arms with Sugino 48t chainring and Origin8 track chainring bolts.
Shimano UN55 cartridge bottom bracket.
Some off-brand vintage bmx pedals that are kinda thrashed.
Weinmann 610 centerpull brakes
Tektro brake levers
Tange Levin headset
Nitto Technomic stem
? 26.4 seatpost
Vetta SL saddle
Soma Portola handlebars with cheapo cork tape.
