Newly built 90's Corsa-01 with 9sp Record. Initial rides are encouraging. I think this one's a keeper.

Rides very nice. I was a little concerned that the frame is a bit small for me -that is why there is so much post showing and a 135mm stem. But it is very comfortable.

Thanks!
The seatpost isn't my favorite, either, but I don't hate it. So long as I don't need to adjust it
The bike really deserves a Nitto S83, I think. I do need a decent amount of setback and Ø26.8mm which really limits my options.

A lot more steel
Haven't posted since 2019, have a lot more steel since then in the stable and being ridden.
Serotta Nova Special with a NOS Campagnolo 10 speed setup.
1985ish Super that's a bit beat up but a total refurb of all parts has it working wonderfully. Quite a good ride.
Mystery Concorde that just got done. Won't see the roads until spring.
Duell Vienna, wonderfully complaint ride that actually feels a little soft up front. But I've posted my best times on this one in 2020.
One of my grail bikes. Italian made Lemond Maillot Jaune.
And these are "in the hopper". Either being refurbished or waiting to be built
Ochsner, Swiss made Columbus SL tubed with Shimano 600 7 speed right now.
Dave Kirk built bike for the defunct Fishlips bike company. About to be built up with either Campagnolo Record or Dura Ace.
One of the Olmo SanRemo tribute bikes. Also about to be built up with Campagnolo.
70's french made Stella bike. A winter fun project. Bought cheap to just clean up and polish all the shiny bits. Still waiting on parts for the full rebuild.
And a Tange Infinity tubed Softride that showed up for sale locally. Because everyone has to try a softride at least once, LOL!

Scorcher steel
I know this would be considered a POS but it was fun to work on. Kind of unusual and made a hipster happy
Cool chrome

Steve Rex Road
Just picked up this one.. Classic Steve Rex frame with Ritchey dropouts, Chris King headset and updated components; Ultegra R8000 hubs, crank, brakes and derailleurs with Dura-Ace levers. Looking forward to tinkering and adding my own touches.
