Faggin Campione del mondo conversion

I got this frame cheap with a crappy spray can paintjob. The derailler hanger, shifter sockets and cable routings were ground off, so it was opted for a fixed gear conversion. It's a perfect fit with a great geometry, so I decided to make it my city beater. I eventually ended up striping off the greyish white paint, treating it to a neat new paitjob, coloring the pantos and applying original decals. Inicially I built it as a lefty (drivetrain on the left side), that's why the trailing spokes are on the inside and the rear tyre is glued on wrong way round. Tyre profile is same same in both directions, so I didn't mind when I turned it around to right side drive train. It's not a track frame, so it somehow didn't feel right without brakes. Although it is fixed and I actually don't need any (I never used the brakes on it to spare the rims.), I think it contributes to its classic look and shows the frame the necessary respect. It had been mistreated with a grinder already. The brake cable clips on the top tube are another detail I like a lot on this bike and couldn't have used without the brakes. The bike is light, completely silent, very responsive and comfortable. It's my sunday bike now instead of the beater.
