The brief

Cameron was looking for something to replace his high-end road bike. We have done some projects with Cameron in the past, and knew this would be an interesting build!

The bike

After checking his setup and discussing what kind of riding Cameron wanted to do, we agreed that a Bossi Summit was the best option.

As with previous projects, Cameron had a particular aesthetic in mind. No simple titanium/black theme was going to cut it here. After researching different colour options, we decided that blue would contrast beautifully against the titanium.

The blue hubs were special-ordered from Tune, then sent to Bossi so they could colour-match the frame. As you can see, they did a superb job.

Now to kit it out. In addition to the aesthetics, Cameron wanted the lightest bike we could build without compromising on safety. Knowing Cameron's tastes, it was obvious that a Dura-Ace groupset—the lightest groupset Shimano make—would be the only option, so that part was easy.

We then laced up low-profile carbon rims to lightweight round spokes, and chose a classic Tune Geiles Teil stem.

For comfort, an SQLab 612 Active road saddle was picked, which is always one of our favourites for road bike builds.

We also couldn't resist adding a matching blue Tune top cap. Do you blame us? Of course you don't.

The final puzzle was the handlebar tape. We knew we couldn't exactly colour-match it, so we needed something different but equally special. We took a chance on Supacaz Oil Slick tape, and it paid off.

The result is a one-of-a-kind bike that's as beautiful as it is versatile.
