With winter fast-approaching, I figured I need a new project. Everyone's probably seen this pic of Sean Kelly before:
Well, that's my new project (not the legs, the bike behind them  ). It's a Vitus Carbone 3, one of the first carbon bikes in the pro peloton. I plan to refurbish this frame to full 1986 KAS-Mavic livery/specs with a Mavic SSC gruppo. Not easy parts to find so this will take some time.

Very cool bike. Here's mine:
Before:
After:
I don't actually know what happened. I remember pushing on the bars a bit to hop over a bump on the path. Then suddenly the ground was coming at me. I woke up with a badly separated shoulder, a sore head, and people standing over me. Please be careful!
*EDIT*
I should clarify; The top tube pulled off the head tube lug and the down tube broke. I just don't know for sure if I pulled it apart or if the front skewer was loose and the wheel came off and the forks hit the ground...
