My new bike project...

Miss. Lucy the Guerciotti is the newest edition to my bike family. She was acquired from LA's craiglist. Named after a fallen street street cat I was fond of, this Italian time trial road bike is truly a legit gem. The previous owner had her built up as a half ass fixed gear with a 2 foot stem... (hideous).

I'm trying to rebuild her gears, breaks, and all. I only know about fixed gear bikes though so this is turning out to be a pain in the ass... I'm taking her to a sick shop in the valley this weekend to get some advice from the homie over there.

Here's some flicks of the long process...
