SPIN gato - just another expensive and boring black bike ;-)



the white bar tape isn't black enough :wink:

I like these DA parts and admire you didn't build this bike with Record Carbon parts as anyone else would have done it :thumbup:

Don't worry, before I ride Campa, I change to SRAM Force (as planned for this year).

They came in stock with the bar tape. This is the shop where I bought the tape and the plugs are available separately: http://www.bike-components.de/catalog/D ... anguage=en

Yes, you're right. The bike is hanging on the wall in my room. I hope i can take some open air pics this weekend, these days the weather wasn't good enough.

i dig the rack. i mounted my bike very similar to this using my pedal axle on a car mounted rack. i milled out a piece of teflon plastic to clamp around my pedal axle. it worked great.

your bike is very nice looking, great work!
