Reverse building an NJS bike hey? Just need the frame lol!

Build looks good! Solid parts list!

I never noticed how slack the HT angle on those colossi’s were though!!!

neat

Nice build dean! Very clean.

nice ride dean, still digging that wheelset

Cheers! Haha yeah you could say I’m a fan, most of the parts were actually stripped from an NJS Vivalo frame size 57.5cm which is too large for me. I"ll be posting it up for sale whenever I get around to it.

The more I see Colossi frames the more I want one.

looks the goods! is there a reason for swapping from the stock fork?

in regards to the slack ht angle, i’d say it’s more a case of it being a 54c-t and more of a ~52sq (going off mine as a 56c-t, 54sq). still has decent toe overlap though!

Thanks! It’s actually the same stock fork from colossi just chrome plated. Because you can never have enough chrome!

Looks fast! nice work

Another one for the TB14 brigade, excellent,! Your ride looks the goods and nice matchy matchy of the Colossi + FYXO red/blue stripes in that last pic

nice!

Hells yeah, TB14s are the bomb! Just noticed that and the colours are exactly the same, neato!

Really nice, clean and sweet.

appreciate all the comments peeps, some feedback would be rad! i’m thinking gum wall tyres would just about do it for this build.

This looks sweet now. Tb14s set off any frame beautifully. Radial on the front so nice. dean wouldn’t worry about the gumwalls yet. just ride the shit out of it as it is.

Nice bike! But I agree with the above.
Don’t switch to gumwalls… Yet.

haha we’ll see how much you want em once i’m done with them and thanks man, your leader setup is so sick!

^ this.

words to live by.
