Gorilla Deda (54cm)

The hill-bound location of my new job (and my ever-expanding waist-line) necessitated a geared bike for the daily commute (as opposed to my faithful fixed servant of the past couple of years).

The answer was this hand-built Italian steel road bike with Italian component set, including 10-speed Mirage/Veloce drivetrain mix, Khamsin wheels and Cinelli bars.

Frame size is 54cm c-c top tube - it is set up for someone around 5'7" to 5'10".

Ridden only a handful of times, it makes a perfect training/commuter steed (but clearly, I have too many bikes so its making way for another project...)
