Man, I've built some bikes in my days, but few have required the amount of concentration and work this bike did. I hand polished a number of details to make this bike into a new-retro masterpiece.
The frame is of course from the torch of Lester in Amsterdam so I figured photographing the complete bike with a nearby Rotterdam Noord icon only made sense. Kidding of course, it was because it was sunny and this bike deserves to be photographed in the sunlight.
I'm not sure if there's much to explain here, I mean, did you look at the photos? But I guess I could tell you about the beautiful hand polished rims from Velocity, and the dynamo setup that took me way too long to wire up. And that yes, although not ideal, this lamp can be used upside down (because I know you were going to ask that! 😘). Or maybe you're stoked about super-futuristic robo-shifting on a bike that looks like it could be from the 70's but performs like a new Bentley... Yeah, me too.
