This bike just does it for me. Just the right ingredients: wooden handlebar, worn Brooks saddle, michelin tires. Perfecto!
“This is the kind of bike you would ride during a bright sunny sunday in the middle of spring, with your newspaper under your arm, heading to you favorite breakfast bar. or at least this is what we are used to do in Italy.”
Domenica:
Viking frame, rare Brooks B15 black, chrome vintage fork drilled for a front brake, coaster brake wheelset — so you can brake by backpedaling — vintage white michelin tires, an old rare gipiemme crankset with a golden finish chainring. not to mention a rare Titan stem (similar to cinelli design) coming directly from Belgium from the ’60. To complete the setup a brand new wooden handlebar special designed by Adam Brackney.
