Cherubim Track Racer complete

This is Argiri’s Cherubim Track Racer, a project that we have been working on for quite some time now in the shop. Argi asked for a pristine NJS style track bike dressed up only with precision components and we just went wild on this. By far this is one of the best builds we have done lately. Highlights would be apart from the georgeous classic Kasei tubing frame, a Sugino 75 crankset/bottom bracket paired with an Izumi Super Toughness chain running on a smooth as silk EuroAsiaImports Gold Medal Pro 17 teeth cog. An incredible timeless bike.
