Caleidoooooo Dream Bike

I swore this was going to be the last fixed gear bike I'd ever build, so I wanted to do it right. I love the Caleido due to it's practical geometry and it's flamboyant colourway. Chose silver components because I wanted it to look timeless in 5-10 years when it's all scratched up and beaten. I did my best to make it look as different to all the other Caleidos out there. Sadly, I doubt this will ever see a track.

haha I thought the first few photos were you adjusting fit slightly, then the seatpost kept growing more and more haha! I'd probably cut a few inches off for weight shaving tho

Very nice build, and a cool story about how the bike came to be. That Omnium looks great.

Thanks! Actually it's a CT scanner, me and my buddy were working midnights and inbetween patients we'd work on his bike (the green State).
