One thing I learned from building a couple of bikes from the frame up – I love looking at bike components!

I use to keep several tabs open from the Disraeli Gears site so I can go back an look at the derailleurs. Mainly the early suntour cyclone GT.

Velobase is also a great resource.

Not going to lie that one in the picture reminds me of a set of twig and berries.

And vintage components are so elegant with a design proper of an elite rider even if you had a Dad Bike
