  • This video shows the story I've lived with my Saba bike from the 70s-80s
    It all started when I was living in Bristol. While I was visiting a bike shop, Among a lot of other old and rusty frames, I found this beauty. A fully customized time trail bike frame. It never seemed to have been mounted and had 0 rust. It had a fully customized seat clamp and incredible detail quality.
    After thinking about buying it for a few days, one day I had a nightmare where I saw that if I didn't buy it I would regret it. Then I got up and I went back to the store and bought it. It turned out that it was not of the Mandez brand, it was a Saba instead, imported from Italy. But there is no information on this table online. (which I would appreciate any information about that frame)
    However. It must be adapted for new components. I had to change the wiring routing and all dimensions connection dimensions like Seatpost tube and rear triangle. After a great study of options. The bicycle finally started working. And with a Shimano Ultegra 10-speed transmission and H PLUS Son wheels with Shimano 105 hubs. The bicycle was finished.
    I hope you enjoyed this project that I have done with a lot of love.
    Now she will be my route companion for a long time.

    That's so easy when you know what you are doing, the really difficult part is getting all that knowledge! Great build! True Craftsmanship = great results! Thank You!

    Este vídeo me hizo llorar, sinceramente.
    Hace 2 meses perdí a mi abuelo, y hace unos dias buscando en un viejo garage, en el patio de su casa, encontré dos cuadros de la época en la que el competía, curiosamente un día me despierto y encuentro este vídeo en mi feed de CZcams y al verlo me atrevo a decir que uno de los cuadros que encontré y pertenecían a mí querido abuelo es exactamente el del vídeo. Y mientras miro el video lo único en lo que pienso es en cuántas veces habrá querido salir a pedalear otra vez...
    Al ver el vídeo por segunda vez estoy convencido, voy a ahorrar todo lo que pueda y voy a intentar devolverle la vida a sus bicicletas y rodar todo lo que pueda con ellas, es lo que el hubiera querido. Muchas gracias por el vídeo, saludos desde Argentina.

    Beautiful restoration. I have a custom frame. I had my builder add braze-ons to the bottom of my head tube where the derailleur cables run. This prevented the cable housing from rubbing the paint off my head tube. Maybe something to consider for your next build.

    That brings back memories from when I was a kid. My dad always had us dress up in cycle gear from the 70s, either his tops (Ken Bird cycles, Orpington CC) or others but one I do remember really well is a SABA tops we wore. They where yellow and brown (it was the 70s lol) I remember visiting a Chap in London, Italo I think his name was and my memory tells me he was the owner of SABA. My Dad and him seemed like great friends and they always laughed. I have an old bike of my Dads, all Campagnolo reynolds 531 tubing etc. It was a nice era for bikes. Like yours BTW great job :)
