Going full custom on this locally made steel frame set from Ave Maldea 🇵🇭. Polished Shimano drivetrain with AliExpress 11-46T cogs and crankset that was also stripped off from black. Polished entry level Shimano hydraulic brakes with aluminum short lever conversion and white housing replacements. Tiny details include polished TA skewers, aluminum rotor bolts replacement, polished tubeless valves, polished TA endcaps. Bars and stem are from Nitto, Brooks C17 saddle, MKS Gamma pedals, PDW cages, and Wald front basket complete the look.

What bar tape is that?
Wow, this is really beautiful! Great job with all the polished components!
How did you manage such an amazing job on the polishing?!? I tried to do a set of cranks once and it quickly got too tedious to even consider doing another part – the brake caliper especially, and the derailer!!
What’s your method? If you don’t mind sharing of course.
