My new ride, replacing my Cinelli Superpista. Before you give me crap about having front AND rear brakes – I’m 54, run a low gear (42×18) for going up steep hills, which means I have to go down them as well. My Cinelli had bull horns and a front brake only. I wanted to do drop bars, and replicate the fit of my road bike. So, why not just put a rear brake on? Cane Creek is blowing out the last generation of EE-Wings, so why not? White Industries hubs and headset, Astral rims, Tufo tubeless 28mm tires, Izumi track chain.

This build is absolute insanity lol
Nice to see one posted on here though
I am poor 😆
never seena saddle shaped like that lol don’t know how I feel about that
for real tho I love the colors and matching headset / spacers
What are the levers on the bars for?
I would’ve kept the old bike better,I personally don’t like downsloping top tubes,unless it’s a mountain bike or hybrid.
This is so sick!
Beautiful. Every detail is choice!
I’ve been running eeWings on my gravel bike for 4 years now and they have been nothing but perfect. Would love to have a set on a fixie. Even on deep sale they are still a lil bit spendy 😀
100% icy parts and somehow zero swag.
Is your seatpost supposed to be bent?
Didn’t know Thompson made frames, looks cool
The Mike Giant bartape is the best part.
How well do those Tufos skid? I’m looking to replace my ThickSlicks.
Also, no foot retention. How do you skid??
Wow – I’m waiting for my Skeeter to arrive, and also will be using cane creek eeWings! Great minds.
Mmmmm white industries hubs. Impeccable taste and honestly, the strongest of cog interfaces.
Absolute dream to look at I imagine it rides as good as it looks , fantastic build
