    Put some tape on those bars. Why would you spend all that time building a bicycle and then not finish it. It is a stupid trend right now to ride bars without tape. It’s ugly. Brooks makes some classy leather grips that would incrmentally improve the looks of this bicycle

    One should note that this person just assembles these bicycles. They are asian built frames with boutique parts. Notcot.org states “The Domenica Sport by New York based Bertelli is a hand built example of exemplary craftsmanship and functional art on two wheels.” – should say hand assembled.

    Oh man, and some bar plugs, please!

    Someone is going to get a bar through the torso…

    wrap those bars!

  9. Maishado says:

    By the description Im assuming that they are buying straight aluminum or steel rod, forming it and welding them together into a bike.

    Is this correct? Or is it like the previous comment said, mostly assembled and accesorized and the term ‘craftsmanship’ was used in a looser sense?

    OK, It’s nice but Details, details!!!

    No bar ends. would be nice to see same color as seat color leather bar covering stitched. peddle straps match the seat, bars.
    Other than that this looks like a frame built in asia.
    One hard turn of the bars and that frame has a ding!

    this is a joke. this guy buys cheaply made alien frames has them painted at the factory, throws a random collection of parts, from shit wheels to nice cranks, and ugly tires. and charges $1500 MINIMUM.
    what a ripoff. get a real job and stop scamming people.
    his site says “I currently don’t build road, multispeed or single speed or cruiser bicycles. just pure, clean, old-fashion track bikes. ” probably because he knows nothing about proper bicycle mechanics.

    WOW…So much hate for such a beautiful bike. Keep it skiinny. Keep it straight.

    i love the geometry of this one..the 45 straight blade is great. as for tape…you guys are all on crack..you just need to put some bar end covers on the flat of dropbar. yes bar plugs too..but i agree with garret gee…there is way too much hate here…so the bike is made in asia, or wherever..is that supposed to be a bad thing…asian craftsmanship isn’t bad…i’ve seen it first hand.

    i wish it had some H plus SON deep v’s on it…but killer look..lets see how she rides!

  14. hondo says:

    The frames ARE hand built, lugged steel by Alien, and i have never seen a stem like that, interesting.

  15. J says:

    They are not built “by” Alien, kierin culture sells the same frame as a Kazane, they are built by some large frame factory in Taiwan, which Im sure does a fine job of fastening low end lugs and tubes together and selling them for next to nothing because they pay their employees very little. My point is that I feel it should be explicit that these are not special handmade frames, just pieced together with a rare part here or there by some guy, in his flat in NY
