Johnny got himself a new track frame (Colossi) at Eurobike 2010. A customised (one off) aluminum frame, which was hand built by Jan Kole. The graffiti styled decals are quite unique on a modern track bike and I think that they got it right on this one. I love its geometry, with the curvy seat tube, bringing the rear wheel right into the frame. Here are a few shots I took of the Colossi.

I can’t wait to see it built up, but Johnny is going to have to wait another 2 month for the aluminum to cure, recommendation by Mr Kole as the frame was recently built up.
aaah. the fact that johnny’s bike got stolen is still fucked up. but this is a really nice upgrade for sure! unique piece. can’t wait to see it fully build. aluminium it is! 🙂
THAT IS ONE BEAST!! THE FRAME THAT IS LOL
[…] Although he’s a steel man Jan Kole does these as well: A customised (one off) aluminum frame for Johnny from the 5th Floor. […]
