BICE "Bubi" ("Croce" gravel)

[mattiamerca]

After spent 'bout 2 years riding this old bianchi viewtopic.php?f=23&t=301578&p=2256893#p2256893 and after have understood all the features that i want for MY road-gravel bike, I've decided to ask to Dario Colombo of BICE (http://www.bicebicycles.com/) to made my new frameset!
it will be a long project and i hope to finished in early may...or in june, but I would show to you some photos of frame during building phase and the final results

thanks a lot!!!

I've request a 75° angle for the seattube... and the layback seatpost it's effectively like a "non-sense"...but it was one of my dream-pieces since I was at elementary school... so, after have found this for less than 30€ from a friend, I'll immediately bought it...but I have also a "normal" Elite inline in garage...
all my "official" bikes (RM slayer and Turner Nitrous from my signature) have Thomson Seatpost and stem...it's like a recognizing-element for me...
I'll decide for what will be better when i'll be able to built it entirely
the next step will be the wheelset... at 95% they will be a pair of HopePro2Evo on ZTR Alpha340 rims...

in my opinion they made the BEST aluminum seatpost and stem of everytime...
only the old syncros inline seatpost (1995-2001) is considerable at the same level...
