I wanted to share my first fixed gear build! It’s my dad’s old Tommasini Racing Bike. I think it’s from the 70s or 80s. He didn’t know what it was, a neighbor gave it to him a long time ago and he parted out everything. I told him I was interested in biking and he pulled this frame out from the crawl space in his garage.
Here’s my build:
H Son Plus Archetype on Dura Ace Hubs.
Phil Wood Bottom Bracket
Affinity pro crank set.
All City Cog
MKS Sylvan Track Pedal
Uno Seat Post.
unknown saddle.
I plan on upgrading the saddle and seat post in the near future. I’m looking at a nice brooks saddle.
Let me know what you guys think! It’s been fun learning. I cant skid yet so stopping is a bit of a challenge right now.

You ol’ lookin like you need track dropouts lookin ah. Haha.
Your dad is a little bigger than you, am I right?
>I cant skid yet so stopping is a bit of a challenge right now.
If only some enterprising genius would invent something you can put on the bike so you can stop without having to skid. Oh well, who needs to stop anyway?
