1990 Pinarello Rombo build thread

I really like some of the unique and obscure MTBs built by the traditionally road bike companies of this era. I've always admired the long standing Italian bike manufacturers like Pinarello so when I saw the Rombo frame come up on eBay, I jumped on it. This seller also was selling an nos set of the Gipiemme Tecno 416 wheels. I'd never seen then before and based on some of the crazy $ being spent on nos vintage wheels, I thought they would be a good investment. I've been working on the build over the winter months and wanted to share some of the pics. Hope to get it on the trail soon.

First ride today. I like it. Light, nimble and very Euro nineties. Going to add it to BOTM for April.
