Just got back into riding. Here’s this build i threw together for street riding in greater Los Angeles. Feels great to be back on two wheels. I’ll see ya out there.

I started riding 20 odd years ago when I lived in San Francisco. Rode with a couple of the MASH guys back then (props to Masan & Eugene). Bombing/Climbing hills in SF was INSANE but so much fun. Can’t believe how reckless I was then. What a time to be young & dumb.

53cm Kalavinka (kind of beat up but that’s what its for)

Deep V’s on Philwood High Flange hubs. 3Cross rear, radial front (Got these built by Allez in HP, they do amazing work)

Sugino 75 Cranks w Campagnolo Chain Ring (No Toe Clearance) Don’t think I ever rode a bike that did. lol

46 x 17 gear (this has always been my preferred ratio)

Platform Pedals w Power Straps (hate cages & velcro straps)

Brooks Saddle (they suck at forst but break in so good)

Oury Grips
