Got my MIELE Columbus SL Single Speed built
I finished painting the MIELE Columbus SL frame I'm using as a single speed.. Got the decals on and reassemble all the components.
Bike has Dura Ace AX brake calipers for which I have four more sets of brake pads. Brake Levers are Tiagra. Crank is an Exage one with the grey anodizing removed and the crank polished. Pedals are RINO. Freewheel is an ACS Crossfire 20 teeth. Chain is a KMC. Wheels are MICHE hubs paired with MAVIC GP-4 tubular rims. Tires are CONTINENTALS. Seatpost is a Shimano 600AX aero post. PISTA Handlebar and stem are TTT. Images can be seen he Sideview: https://www.flickr.com/photos/73832500@N00/14012506187/ Gallery of 9 images: https://www.flickr.com/photos/73832500@N00/ Cheers |

That is the one bike I'm very sorry i ever sold. It had aero tubing and even had the Dura Ace AX stem and bars. I found the Dura Ace AX brake calipers sufficient then and still do. Adjusting the centering is dead simply = just pull/push the brake until centered. Even hooking up the cable is not hard. Cheers |

Well, so much for reading comprehension (I went straight to the pictures). So, the answer is yes. Oddly, the front tire does not look like a sew-up. |

Rear is Challenge Criterium and front is a Continental Sprinter and both are 22 mm. Cheers |

(invalid to gmail) That`s an old Shimano Aero water bottle. I have four of the bottles. Three have full alloy cages and one has the alloy and plastic cage that was the Shimano 600 AX bottle/cage. On another bike I have two of the old Campagnolo aero bottles with integral handle ans their matching alloy cages. Cheers |
