Wheels are HED Jet 9s until my hubs come in!





Available for test rides.

Now to get the match lambo!

My first (and unfortunately my last) orange bike was a Schwinn Varsity. That Parlee reminds me of why I liked that color so much! It's really nice and so is the Parlee logo! Was it painted at Parlee or another shop??

KAC

looks sharp.
nice work

The frame looks a m a z i n g but the rest... wheels, crankset, stem, bottlecages, bartape are out of place IMHO

I would take those bright stickers off the wheels...?

Remove the wheel decals, and paint that stripe on the stem to match the frame!

4 seconds spent reading the OP into would show that the wheels are temporary.

Did you manage to get the weights of the athena?

Didn't want to sound negative in anyway.

I would still personally take the stickers off as they are too big, independently from the bike used.

I think there is nothing wrong with those wheels btw, bit heavy but I guess they are for flat races.

well... i'd love the frameset in either orange or nude... but honestly, i just don't like the unpainted lugs... or the painted tubes...

i also do not think that the parts really are a good match, neither colourwise, nor shapewise. admittedly there has been put a lot of cash into this project, i am sure. but that just doesn't make it any nicer.

That's an awesome bike. With the Jet 9's or some handbuilt hoops, it looks great.

Don't worry Daddy, I didn't build it for you. Only on weight weenies would a guy w/a Trek on Lightweights call someone out on $ spent (Nice Trek BTW) And don't worry, I own the shop so I was broke to begin with.

Sorry, I didn't weigh the Athena stuff; it wasn't a weight weenie project.

Love your Firefly JB! Have one on order for a customer.

Keep it coming fellas!And please start lobbying companies for orange parts!
