GIOS MIO IV
It’s done! Well, it’s ridable!
Here’s the story:
1. I got back from a backpacking trip to find all these boxes at my studio… one of these packages is not like the others…

2. Rageeeele’…. must be Italian!

3. It felt like Christmas… please excuse the floor, it’s got a new coat of paint coming in the near future!.

4. Here it is with a gaudy purple backdrop. Love it!

5. Built and ready to ride! I just need to get some drops.

I got to pedal it around a little this evening and I must say it rolls so smooth, accelerates snappy, and I LOVE IT! I am having second thoughts on the blue saddle, I may want to go to standard black, and I think this bike deserves some drops to enhance the classic look.
Tomorrow early AM I’ll ride out to the studio and into the city for some coffee to break it in a little! ![]()
