When finished, this will be posted in the Strandie thread, but for now, I'm chronicling my latest build. This build is called 'Il Bassett Italiano' or 'The Italian Bassett'. Basically it's all about building a 26" BMX Cruiser / Strandie with an Italian influence. The build will have a Campagnolo drive train, Campagnolo front Sherriff star hub, Selle Italia saddle, and what @danthrift calls Superleggera (translation: "super light") rims. Or what most of us call Araya 26 x 1.5 rims. Contact rubber will be 26 x 2.125 snake bellies. The rest of the parts list includes: Blue Tuf Neck stem and seat clamp; Santa Barbara Cruisers laid back seat post; Suntour coaster brake, cruiser handlebars, AME grips, Blue MKS BM-7 pedals, Tange 1200 forks, and a Tange Bottom Bracket. This is going to be a fun build. Hopefully you will enjoy it too!
