Eddie Fiola Proformer #025

Hand made in the US by John Severin and #025 of 250. Designed and tested by Eddie Fiola and hand made by a master. Powder coated by Olympic in Santa Ana, CA.
I tried to build this with as much USA made parts as I could and wanted to build it light.
Since the first frames released came in Eddie's signature "Flyin' Banana" Yellow, I went with the old Yellow, White, and Blue color scheme. Similar to the 85 World Tour that came with white Tuff Wheels.
I had to decide on whether to build new school or old school since this bike was made for both.
I went with the New since it was my first New School build and I wanted working brakes and light weight.

The 34R products, although not American made(Czech) were all top quality. I decided on them when I saw the dual cable, short throw, levers. The dual cable levers gave me the idea to run two cables on the front break. You may notice the custom headset cap drilled for dual cables(Thanks Eddie) allowing them to pass through the headtube like a Pott's Mod. The rear brakes are dual cables from the lever to the break, utilizing a smooth 34R Roto(gyro). Custom painted London Mods and Gyro Tabs with offset color barrel adjusters.

Custom Lizard Skins engraved ODI lockring grips. Engraved with "Fiola" and "Proformer"
Fiola Proformer stickers fully customized with a lot of cut and paste.
The Profile Mini's are laced with Titanium rainbow colored spokes to Sun Envy rims on Fit FAF 2.1 tires. Titanium 9T driver and axle/bolts used when available. Profile 22mm Column cranks powdered white and attached to a 25T Profile galaxy sprocket. The pegs when installed are custom cut Tree Trick Sticks
