70's-80's Frank Paino road bike

Long time between updates! Paino's "finished" except maybe period correct Campy pedals.

CycleEXIF also published a nice little feature on the Paino here: http://www.cycleexif.com/paino-strada

Due to some recent financial reasons (just been a little quiet lately). I'm down to 3 bikes now. The Paino, my Reign and the faux Kuwahara.

And with any old bike, you HAVE to strip it in order to restore parts in any case (and besides I like to experiment). Taking those parts off not only helped me to clean them, but also to get to know the bike some more (I'm also putting a full spec list together via Google help ).

Absolutely. The first thing to do when you get such a lovely thing is do it justice by pulling it to bits and meticulously cleaning every nut and bolt.
It's the very first thing I do when I do a resto.

Anyone who dosn't do that when restoring a classic bike needs a kick up the ass.

It's a gem. Glad you ditched the white tyres too. I was also curious to see how they looked, but I reckon after a few weeks of riding they would just look yuck. You can't beat the Vittorias!

Love it!

I just checked out all 9 pages thus far, good read. Nice work with the Rolls as well, I have one on my SS and love it.

Farkin it's been a while!

Just an update on the Paino: Re-used the wheels that came with my SL6, tubes and tyres that came with my SL8. New 8-speed cassette, cassette spacer and chain. Still love this bike so much!

Final weight: 8.79kg

Great thread dig.
Nice bike!

BTW I reckon the gentle bends of the King Cage Iris bottle cage would be better match the overall aesthetic.

Damn they're beautiful! I did see this in a Ti version which was pretty expensive (and heavy), but I just googled and they also make it in SS (which is lighter and WAY cheaper at $35). Doesn't look like there's a shop in Sydney with one in stock though. Might just have to order it online.

Where did you see them for $35?
I was planning on getting some for my roadie.

You’ve certainly gotten your moneys worth!
Quality grave dig. That was a good read.

A set of Dura Ace 7700 downtube shifters came up on FB Marketplace and I pounced on them. INDEXED SHIFTING! I had to have them, and man they're so awesome that it kinda inspired me to go all out on a neo retro build.

The aim (for the fun of it) was to get it below the UCI 6.8kg limit. Happy AF to say I got there!
