For those of you that like classic bikes, have a look at Adam Hammond’s blog Two Serious Bikes. He’s got quite the eye for classic bicycle styles and interesting parts. I like bikes (duh) and classic looking bikes, but this guy is really quite picky and knows his stuff. I’m happy if I can get parts like deraileurs that are silver in colour. Adam has to remove the anodization from parts and then laboriously bring the finish to a high polish to be happy. That’s attention to detail. If you drill down through his past posts, you can see that he has even built his own frame. While sometimes I think he might be too serious (hah, pun intended!), there is some interesting stuff to be learned.
I’m looking forward to seeing photos of his new steed.
