Hey
Jim
I
made the trek up to NAHBS
this year to pick up my second Jonny Cycles. This new one has been
nick named, by Jonny, "Super Skinny", a nice complement to "Big
Pink".
Super
Skinny was conceived at the 2006
NAHBS, (Big Pink's first show). After talking to Jonny I decided
I wanted an aesthetically minimal bike with skinny tubes. This is
Jonny's interpretation.
The
bike uses Nagasawa lugs, super skinny G.P. Wilson dropouts, and
a highly modified Zeus track crown and tiny 22 mm. fork blades.
Jonny also included a stunning highly polished titanium stem.
Most
of the components are contemporary 10 speed Campy, with no carbon
bits. Jonny modified and polished some bar end shifters to give
me 10 speed indexing down-tube shifters.The cranks are Top Line,
with Boone Titanium rings. Nitto bar, seat post and cage. Swallow
saddle and Diacomp levers. The brakes are the show stoppers, highly
modified carved down Paul Racers, best of all they no longer say
PAUL. The brakes were chosen to accentuate the cute little Zeus
crown.
I
live in Orange County, so I have no need for lots of clearance or
fenders, this is my primary road bike, and Big Pink my primary mountain
bike, they make quit a pair.
