Here is my first build from scratch bought the frame last year and used it during the winter as a training bike with a 105 groupset.

I loved the frame and ride of the bike so much that i decided to build it up as another summer bike :lol:

Parts where sourced over a few weeks and put the build together over the last few days.

Here it is in action during a 10mile TT using some mavic kysyrium wheels as 30mm is the limit for the road category.
Looking at getting semi compact chainrings when i have some cash and maybe stripping the paint for the crankset and polishing it.

Very stylish build.
Usually when people post pics of them on their bikes it’s the ultimate humble brag buy you look very “Euro retro pro”.
Nice work
