Ok to preface, I don’t hate it as much as I only dislike track geometry and the low handlebars, probably going back to townies or flats with a riser stem or swap the frame to something more relaxed like Brother Allday. Bullhorns are literally only comfortable in a single hand position when sprinting, toe strike is real and finding parts in EU is ass.
Build is:
48/17
Bernardi 53cm frame in a custom powdercoat with Look HSC 1″ fork.
Wheels are Velocity Aeros laced to Gran Compe SF hubs with Panaracer gravelking slicks at 28c.
BLB 165mm cranks arms with vintage Sugino chainring.
Pedals – MKS Sylvans with MKS toe clips and nylon straps.
Some shimano front brake with Dia Compe Goldfinger brake lever.
Kalloy stem 60mm and seatpost, Sugino seat pin.
Random ass bullhorns with Grepp grip tape and Nitto bar end plugs.
Brooks c15 saddle.

That fork is a bad idea.
What bag is that?
