Awesome sprung saddle & suspension seatpost combo.
Frame angles are nice.
Looks like your chain's a little rusty though?

That's well tasty.
Getting myself an old Shauff road bike soon, looking forward to doing it up and getting out in the hills.

Thanks guys...just went out and did about 20k's on it...my legs are dead, but it's such a good ride. The cranks aren't quiet which is a little shitty...so will have to take it apart and see what the deal is...apart from that, it's such a good ride.

Noisy cranks are sometimes just a matter of greasing screws and bolts. This is how I fixed mine.

Maybe a little un-ilf, too slick, too sporty...? /idk/ But I dig the minimalistic look, and the low maintainance aspect of it and all that. Also...I have a weak spot for gadgets and innovating shit like the build in rear leds, hidden bell, folding steer and pedals for easy parking/storage, automatic 2-speed gears, gates belt...
The white one might be a bit too clean looking though, I'm currently in the market for a black one. SOOOO damn pricey though

Only 24" actually. The smaller wheels give it playfull look imo, and they should give the bike a pseudo-bmx kind of feel too.

I converted this old Rossi to fixed a few years ago, but made a bunch of changes to it this summer.
I think I've got it just about right, now. Sad that summer's almost over... but I think it's going to be a good winter, riding rollers.
