Wonderful clean lines on this bike partially added to by old school rim brakes, still the preferred brake system of criterium riders for many reasons.
A bit of a story about this one; I was meant to meet the owner to ride to Hillingdon Race Circuit but unfortunately while trying to remove a leaf from his front tyre he jammed his hand between said tyre and the down tube and flipped himself over the handlebars on to his nut; needless to say he didn't make it to the race. The bike was OK though.
