Rossin Ghibli Pursuit - Finally Complete

Olli Erkkilä's greatest project so far is finally ready. I've reported its phases many times along the way and if you remember, even signor Mario Rossin himself sent a message of approval after having been shown some photos of the project. Congratulations!

But always, there's already something new brewing in Olli's workshop...

Fuji Pursuit Model For 2011

If I got this right, the pictured bike is supposed to be new Fuji Pursuit model for year 2011, yes, not 2010 but 2011. Interesting, and there's even more...

3 x Geekhouse On Ebay

Yay! Three Geekhouse bikes on Ebay right now. 

Actually they're being auctioned off by Marty Walsh, the framebuilder himself. Two of them are custom 'Über Rock City' frames made for NAHBS 2009, built up with nice components too, and one is his standard model Rockcity. 

Check them all out here. 

Happy Guy

Somebody already said this: he looks like a one of those bounty hunters from Texas or somewhere. But like a happy bounty hunter, anyway.

Chierici / Scarpa Pursuit Track Frame

I really dig all these pursuit track bikes so here's another nice one for sale on Ebay right now. Made by Chierici - Scarpa in Parma, Italy, probably in the early 1990s(?). The auction is for the 57cm frame & fork as well as a 650c front wheel. Check out the crazy hexagonal compressed tubing. Like whoa!

EDIT:

Thanks to T_M I just learned that the 'crimped' or 'fluted' tubing is actually called 'Gilco MS' and that it was made by Columbus from mid to late 1980s. However, this type of tubing was quite popular and there were also many variants made by competing brands at the time so not all that type of tubing is necessarily made by Columbus.
