amazeballs! i am a huge fan of the brooks saddle although have been casting about trying to find a lighter alternative. it looks perfect on this IMO. SR 2015 crank would look even better in my opinion although the current setup is so fantastic it is hard to process. as you say, cabling looks amazing. thankyou for this.

Update
The new cageless water bottles by Fabric are finally out - red only at present, still waiting on the black one
73g for mounts and bottle VS 97g for Carbonsports Lightweight cage and bottle.
I just like the fact that it simplifies the look of the bike even further.
Seems like a solid mount but will see how practical it is on the road

They are both really beautiful! True work of arts! I love my late 1960s Cinelli Supercorsa Pista, probably the only bike I'll never sell. :-)

Those photos are really neat, everything is so shiny and clean the they look more like hd computer renderings than real bikes!!

Something doesn't look right in those photos? Like they've been photoshopped?

The 'face to face' photo of the two bikes together has been created from two individual photos stitched together. Tom the photographer is a bit of a perfectionist and I suspect he may have touched some of the shadows on the floor of some shots (he is Swiss after all) - but I can assure you the rest is just good lighting and attention to detail - I agree that in some instances the bike looks like it is floating.
For example in the last photo you can just see the knot of the fishing line tie between the two mech cables running under the downtube so that the line of the cables was straight.

My god.

Both beautiful machines, but the restomod must be one of the cleanest and sexiest bike out there!

Great idea to remove the barrel adjusters and drill out the cable stops, something I think I'll do on my own humble restomod.
However I agree with Wingnut on the photos. Very meticulously shot, and I like the super-real feeling, but I find the shadows distracting, the eye is drawn to them instead of the amazing bikes.
