Tenspeed Hero Winter Project



As the winter settles in, just dreaming of those spring, summer and autumn days starts to wear a little thin. Today we received a 1991 Century TSX Eddy Merckx that is going to be repainted by the best painter in the business, Joe Bell. After that we will rebuild the bike into a modern day steel racer. 2008 Campagnolo Record, USE Alien Titanium Seat Post, Brown Suede Selle San Marco Regal, NOS Vintage Cinelli Quill Stem and NOS Cinelli Handlebars....and wheels-to be determined. Some Hyperon Ultras would be nice but maybe be a bit out of budget.



This Team Kelme is a beautiful paint job but has a bit too many paint nicks when closely inspected. The new paint scheme will be British Racing Green which we feel will go nicely with the Suede Saddle.



Decals will be Molteni.
