3Rensho

General Post your ride

I’ve been meaning to post some photos for ages.
Picked up this frame last year (was originally Erles, then Zephs, now mine - chain stops here too), and have been gradually upgrading parts since - which I’ve managed to do with only having to pay for the saddle (which only cost $11.)
The paint is really chipped, and its pretty beaten up - but it’s my everyday bike, and I love it so much.
It’s 52x52, which isn’t my ideal size but I got use to the size straight away.

I’ll post photos of my old bike soon too (hillman track)… which I get back in a few days! Its been sitting in King Kog since November, but I am heading there on Tuesday!

Anyway - Rensho frame, Nitto stem, Gipiemme cranks, Shimano Dura Ace hubs & Seatpost, MKS pedals & clips, Vegan double straps, Deep V rims, San Marco Rolls saddle, White Zaffiro Pros etc.

thats a great looking bike! THE only colour for a 3rensho, if i was to have one. webbed lugs are nice too.
and 52x52 looks like a great size for you, if the set up is any indication… no crazy long stem, no long seat post… what would you change?
oh, and this is me being an ignoramous re:clip pedals: what are vegan double straps? vegan is the brand? or the type of product?

lovely lugs!

Vegan as in not leather, made from oil instead - nylon straps I presume

Yeah, just nylon… :slight_smile:
A kid in Poland makes them… they are great!
