That. Is. Amazing.

Makes me miss my Carlton Track frame!

Why did you replace the cranks and what with?

That is always stunning, not matter how many times I see it.
The colour combination and the little details I just really love, like the brake levers, gear lever adjusters etc all just add up to something very special.

The crankset that was on the bike when I bought it was a Sugino cottered steel affair, impressive and heavy. I've used a Stronglight 99 now with 50/38 rings and a modern sealed BB.
