Attached
(with any luck) you should find some pics of my Doug Fattic road
bike. I'm remembering Doug (Niles, MI) built the bike for me in
1988 but memory fades and I could be off a year or so. At any rate,
the frame was fabricated from a blend of Columbus tubing and originally
equipped with a 7speed Campagnolo Chorus group featuring downtube
shifters. I believe the fork crown is a Cinelli. In subsequent years
different upgrades occurred: later model Chorus brakes, 8 speed
cogset and Record brake lever shifters. The crank is original with
53/42 rings. Doug re-painted the bike in 2003 and a new Salsa stem
was added. Other equipment includes Chorus pedals and Ambrosia wheels.
While I also ride several bikes of more recent vintage, the Fattic
still retains an amazing blend of comfortable fit, solid feel and
responsive ride.
