Nick it is from http://nakedbicycles.com/

Many thanks.

My partner is looking at a steel bike and loved (as did I) the look of this one. Cannot a frame made in the USA or UK, but Canada is totally fine. She's going to be asking about lead times and pricing. I have just a hint of bike envy already.

The Hinault looks great with the Reynolds wheels and skin walls!

I put down my deposit in June 2015 and received the frame at the end of April 2016, so your lead time will be ~a year.

You won't be disappointed with a frame from Sam.

9.25kg And i can bring it down. another 175gr.
The wheels are heavy at just under 2kg(from here i can shave 340gr but it is not cheap,Mavic Helium in mind)

Reposting from the Colnago thread as it's a steel bike Managed to find the frame NOS in Spain, had never been built up. I'm unsure on the exact model but my best guess is that it is a C96 due to the Thron tubing and curved forks.. It rides quite lovely, I'm amazed at the difference over Carbon/Aluminium (this is my first steel bike).

Just scooped this guy up from my lbs, Salsa Pistola.

Looks very nice
However, it does confuse me slightly. I'm a bit puzzled by the 1x drivetrain, is this a hill climb only bike? Could be for gravel, but the rest of the bike seems to be road oriented. Just wondering

[BradFio]

Honestly it was set up by the shop owner, I purchased it second hand from him.
I can only assume it's set up 1x is because here in Houston we do not have many (read any) hills to speak of so a 44T chain ring up front is basically all you need.
I will need to ride it for a bit to see if it is how I want to keep it.

[waltthizzney]

is it worth fixing this?

Columbus Nemo Tubing for reference, I would have to replace both chainstays I am guessing. Would it be hard matching tubing? Would it mess up the ride quality?
