New frame Veneto Altec 2, another project after the Daccordi incident

[georges1]

Good Afternoon
On one of my projects bad luck happened due a poorly machined headset (a chris king no thread headset) , when by my bike tech wanted to install it didn't go smoothly as opposed to the other headsets (two campagnolo record threaded headsets , one stronglight jdx94 threaded headset) he installed on the other bikes without problems, the chris king caused a small crack in the direction / heaset tube. The daccordi will be repaired but told me that I should avoid chris king as headset, I will buy later a campy chorus headset. Nevertheless until I haven't seen the repair being done , I decided to go for a spare frame in case of . I stumbled on a very nice veneto from the seller who sold me the coppi back then that is very close to my daccordi fly regarding quality but with a more colorful paint. The finish of the welds beat any colnago dream or bianchi mega pro or cannondale caad 8-10. It has a campy chorus head set, masi carbon fork and look stem. It will be another dura ace 7800 equipped bike.

Received the frame in july 2023 , applied a new altec 2 sticker to it while the original one was not in good shape and installed the bar. The finish of the welds is a very close match to my daccordi

Finally the fork has been changed by the columbus muscle one and it makes the bike lighter and with a more racy appeal
