Alien Fixa

The frame is an Alien (with a Time carbon fork 1”) which was added a set of cable stops, a set of water bottle braze-ons, a small tube at seatstay bridge for a brake and the rear triangle was chromed.

 

I decided to substitute the original fork due its short steerer tube that only allows a Tange Passage headset or an old Shimano 105 with 33mm stack height.

 

The crankset is an old Campy Pista (drive side) 165mm and 144BCD, and the left side was a Campy Strada (drive side) that I converted to non-drive side and a machine shop rethreaded it in order to accept a left pedal (it thread s counterclockwise).

 

The other parts are as follow:

- Headset: Campy Record;

- Stem: Litespeed (titanium);

- Handlebar: Azonic Double Wall Riser (50 cm);

- Grips: Oury;

- Brake Levers: Suntour XC Pro (champagne);

- Seatpost: Record Aero;

- Saddle: Brooks Professional;

- Bottom Bracket: Sampson Titanium 107mm;

- Chainring: Sugino Mighty Competition 44T ;

- Chain: KMC Z610 HX - 3/32";

- Pedals: Chorus Aero with Brooks straps;

- Rims: Mavic CXP22 ;

- Front Hub: C-Record Pista;

- Rear Hub: IRO flip-flop (low flange);

- Track Cog: IRO 17T ;

- Lockring: Wheel Mfg;

- Freewheel: Eno 17T by White Industries;

- /Brakes: Campy Chorus;

- Tires: Slime 700x25.

 

It is as very nice ride.
