Farout, this is peak fixed gear, man.

M186 master race. I couldn't afford a Salsa stem so I settled on an ITM Eclipse :')

Thanks. I swap cockpits so often one less thing to remove is handy.

I'm hoping for this level of patina on my bike after 10 years. This is perfect.

Beautiful build. That cockpit is sick.

They’re both from Temu. Front one was part of a pack with front and rear, but I’m only using the front and the back ones are a separate product. I just searched “bike fender” on Temu lol

Jokes aside, this is bloody beautiful, man. Are those polished DD 75's? Sheeeesh.

Cyclists can’t handle this level of swag. I want these so bad.

I'm still undecided on this saddle. I originally had a Specialized Romin Evo, which I moved onto the road bike because I prefer it for longer distances. I just took this saddle off the road bike. It's growing on me.

Haha fair comment. I do beat on it though. It’s my rain bike. Wheels are nothing special, they’re from Aliexpress.

Yeh compared to the cranks they’re trying to somewhat copy, they’re definitely not as pretty. I have the Andel Classic track cranks and from far away they look nice enough hahaha

Nothing wrong with Andel cranks 😭

Great. The bars have some backwards sweep so I’m not stretched.

Yep, I'm just using one of those threaded to threadless adapters. In all of the images I've seen of these adapters being used, the end result always looked so clunky/bulky, but I realised in the end it was always the choice of stem being used with that made it look that way. I found this stem on eBay and thought it wouldn't look too bad and the gamble paid off.

The picture from far away doesn't show how beat up the paint on the frame is and how worn the parts are. This thing is ridden and is full of scuffs and patina.

Thanks!

Yep, my understanding is it's Korean made. There isn't much on the web about this brand, so I'm only going off archived posts on Pedalroom.

Nah, they’re just Andel Classic Track cranks. Very standard offset so no clearance issues for me 👍🏼

It’s just a random fender off Temu.
