Sugino Messenger

Rolls White Leather

Sylvan Track Pedals

Assembled from all sorts of odds and ends. Picked up the frame, saddle and stem on ebay. The rest picked up at various bike shops in London, and the tyres whilst I found myself in San Diego.

Been riding this for a couple of years now, the novelty hasn't worn off :)

please give that bike the campy goodness it deserves. Why convert such a gorgeous piece of history?

tough crowd..

Submitted by oller on 06/15/2009.

the frame was rescued from a skip, complete with a serial number that's been partially filed off. so it's had a chequered past.

i did get hold of a campag super record crankset, but had a lot of trouble with the chainline.

reminds me, i should probably give those another home....
