Today I revived My Summer Bike!

This one’s a bit of a beast — a fixed gear touring gravel bike (?)
Cinelli Tutto frame, bought online in size M (I’m 5’8/172cm), and it needed a seat post with setback, a saddle with long rails scooted all the way back, and all the spacers to make it fit.
I guess I’m tall for Italian standards.

Mounted the widest tires it would take, the lightest rack I could find, and the bare minimum in accessories to make it kinda street legal.
It’s the silliest bike I ever built, and it makes me smile every single time I ride it.

    They may be too nice to say anything, but I am certain your riding partner hates your fixie. Riding with a fixie in the group kinda sucks.

      Trust me, he isn’t too nice to say something.
      But we had an agreement that worked: I get to set the pace, and he gets to sit in my slipstream all day long.
