Not the typical WW fare, but definitely steel (OX Platinum).

Made some changes to my fixed gear commuter built by Antonio Taverna from Cicli Vetta...

Cables too short :lol:
Other than that, a real museum piece. Love looking over stuff like this. Thanks for posting.

Wow, he definitely comes up with some creative solutions. Reminds me of the Emma Pooley BC bike or Cadel's Canyon

To completly match my Rychtarski's setup to my fitted Canyon I need a 135mm/10degree stem, and the only one I can find is the PRO Vibe Sprint stem. The problem is, I'm a little concerned that it will be too bulky on a steel frame (44mm ht though) So does anybody have this setup or have seen a picture of a steel bike with the Pro Vibe Sprint stem? :noidea:

Alternative, does anybody know of any other 135mm/10degree stem?

How about using a bar with 5mm more/less reach? Or are you bent on using the same exact bars?

Or rotate the bars slightly down and move the brake levers up on the bars to change the effective reach?

Or move the saddle 2.5mm and live with a 2.5mm difference?

Or use a -7° 130mm stem and add a spacer under the stem? Then it will be very close in reach to your 135mm -10°.

@a.davis12
Some lovely bikes there.. The last one, is that a stock model or did you do the Di2 conversion yourself?
