I started restoring proper vintage bicycles before moving slowly into custom builds. And I am completely still in love with a true classic frame, beautiful lugs, thin tubes, intricate details and catchy paintjobs. This Claud Butler Torino has it all, it's built with Reynolds 531 tubing, and was meant to accept 27inch wheels which when upgraded to 700c allows for wider tyre clearance.
It was the perfect candidate for my new commuter build, in this video you will find some of my favourites parts and brands, I am talking Velo Orange, Nitto, MKS, Blue lug, Rivendell, Crane, Sun XCD, Campagnolo, Brooks, it has it all!
Part list:
๐ธ Brooks professional saddle
๐ธ Nitto Albastache moustache bars
๐ธ Grepp bartape
๐ธ Velo Orange hammered mudguards
๐ธ Velo Orange front rack
๐ธ Velo Orange polished stem
๐ธ Crane bell
๐ธ Rivendell bar-end shifter
๐ธ Kileybike lights
๐ธ Bluelug YMC Crankset
๐ธ SunXCD High flange hubs with Campagnolo Strada Omicron rims
๐ธ Lyotard Berthet pedals with MKS half clips
๐ธ Suntour Cyclone rear mech with Wolftooth component road link
๐ธ Panaracer x Rivdendell Jack Brown tyres
