Can I see pictures of your neo Retro builds

[bedraggled]

I know it's Retrobike but I've been struck by the neo Retro bug, old frame sets with modern components.

Reading through the various threads there seems to be quite a few about.

I'd like a few ideas for my next build, who's going to start.

Modern parts - conti GP4000s tyres, dual pivot calipers, swisstop greens, Campag Record carbon SS levers, Ashima brake csbles, Campag Record carbon bottle cage, Thomson seat post, clipless pedals

Retro parts - Campag Super Record drivetrain, Campag hubs on Mavics with Campag skewers, Simplex Shifters, Cinelli stem and bars, Velo Pinarello saddle, Avocet cyclometer

Love it, for me it combines the most enjoyable parts of retro but none of the downsides such as lame brakes and outdated tyres.

:shock: what was the thinking behind the pedal arms in the first one. Both stunning!

Not sure if mine fits in the Neo Retro squarely well but its a '91 De Rosa with some contemporary improvements like Mavic Aksium wheels, Nitto Compact style M106 handlebars, Fizik saddle and 10 speeds in the rear with DA 7900 shifters. Because of the 10 speed change, chainrings and derailleurs in the front also had to go new. The rest are all 90's period Shimano 6400
