Cannella Canadian Single Speed

A bit of history on Cannella: Joe Cannella was the owner of Windsor Bicycle Shop, and the sponsor/ coach of the Cannella Cycling Team. Joe made his own bikes in the shop, but also was a Rino / Gardin cycles dealer. Joe also worked full time night shifts at the Chrysler factory in Detroit: he was a busy man indeed!! Building bikes was just a side hobby for him, so he never made a lot: there were only 30 real Canella bikes ever made. This one was made in the early 1980s, with 1970s Reynolds 531 steel, Campagnolo dropouts, and Nervex lugs. I tried to make a simple, lightweight single speed, with some modern accents on the touch points of this bike, while maintaining components that compliment the age of the bike.
