Hi everybody

This my steel frame :
gios compact pro.
It was a 1994 spare frame from the spanish "Kelme team". And it was never used
This bike is very fine to ride :D

@Fletch62, it's an Oak Cycles frame, fillet brazed 931. It's going to be my all-weather bike, mudguards, Di2 and disc brakes (hence the monster ENVE fork). Living in the UK having something that can be used in the driving rain is useful.

The geometry is identical to my System Six, the idea being that transferring from the Oak to the S6 means no change to position.

Welcome sirach!
You may remove the wheels decals and use a black or white bartape for better looks.
Nice frame!

Hi Kgt
Thanks!
I will remove the handlebars, they are a little... too much :wink: I'm agree
For the moment I will let the decals, because I use those wheels with others bikes too.

I've got a second old steel bike, a little bite different, I only use it in the city just for the fun :
it's a Mercier cycle frame reynolds 531 from 1977, with shimano crane and the first durace (around 1977 too)

My Speedvagen!

Really enjoy this bike. Light and nimble, regretfully I have to sell it now. Have a look in the classifieds if you're interested.

That's a really nice bike Andrev! I like the BIG Biodinamica bottle, I only have the 500ml version and it's too small for longer rides

Thanks!
But mine is used in rain/snow, so its no spotless such your Bottecchia..
Maybe Il do a restoration of the frame, but afraid of loosing the patina..
