Thanks to jim c. at Orange 20 [www.orange20bikes.com] for rocking the HS and any problems beyond my grasp.

This is my favorite bike ever. Even more than that one BMX I had as a kid. This bike has had many incarnations. Basically, it has gone 1/2 Japanese 1/2 Italian to Full Italian back to 1/2 Japanese 1/2 Italian. Some day, I will bring it back to all C-Record but every time I get close, I get hit or crash and break something (RIP Campagnolo TBS pedals). I have been hit on this thing, I have fallen off of this thing and it keeps on going. I am going to ride it until it is done. Other bikes come and go but this one has been with me since 2004.

Gelato

Submitted by Jakito on 04/25/2007.

Nice build. Tonally similar to my Bushnell. Prefer the drops over the risers. Something about risers on vintage frames seem off to me. Maybe we'll cross paths at O-20.

I agree, a full

Submitted by jamesinger on 05/04/2007.

I agree, a full Cinelli/Campagnolo late 80s theme would be amazing for this bike and some day I hope to have old Joe Bell paint this thing right and rebuild it c-record but for now, this is the bike I ride from the bowels of N.East LA to The Bicycle Kitchen and everywhere in between (but not farther west because those West Side kids are crazy). The risers are SUPER comfortable and the parts are overbuilt and functional. Regardless, I like how this bike looks so much. Thanks for the comment!

those guys are both

Submitted by jamesinger on 05/04/2007.

those guys are both assholes. You can still catch them at the kitchen. Jim is there Sundays I believe. I think TJ rotates in and out of regular days. If you go in Sun. call Sat. and make an appointment!!! If you are in LA, stop by!!!

Submitted by rubbishheap on 02/12/2007.

really like those chromed risers and the cxp30 rims, too bad NOS cxp30's are waaay more spendy then velocitys =(

if you are patient, you can

Submitted by jamesinger on 02/15/2007.

if you are patient, you can find CXP-30s for cheap. I have wanted to build a wheelset for a few years but I keep coming across built wheelsets NOS for cheaper than just the hubs cost. You just have to look around...

bottom bracket lug...

Submitted by . on 08/08/2006.

hey james,
so, do you have anything stamped on your bb shell (like CINELLI???) my frame isn't the chromey version like yers...just wondering what kind of lugs those italian guys used for your frame. being a cinelli fan since i came out my momma...(rip odb), i was sorely disappointed that first day when i flipped my frame over and discovered that the bb shell was generic except for the frame size, serial #, and a coupla cooling vents. blah blah.
yours truly,
kidcola

my BB is the same I think.

Submitted by jamesinger on 08/11/2006.

my BB is the same I think. Pretty generic. It has some serial numbers and the size but nothing cool like pantographed logos. This bike is from around 1990, I have been told by different peoples...
