Andy Lennard is a cycle instructor and trainer based in London. He has built up an Equilibrium frame and fork with Campag componentry and it looks great, I always thought that an Equilibrium frame built up with silver campag kit would look lovely and Andy's fine build has proven that the Reynolds steel frame and Italian componentry are a fine match indeed. Here is what Andy had to say about his lovely new ride and he was king enough to send us some shots of the build.
As a Project Manager and Cycling Instructor for Cycle Training UK I often travel across London meeting various trainees and clients. I needed a frame that could easily iron out the bumps of the city streets, but at the same time, be fast and light enough to train on at weekends. I chose the Genesis Equilibrium because of its quality lightweight Reynolds tubing, ride and looks. The option of being able to buy the 'frame and fork only' meant that I could build it to my own specification. I'm a big fan of Campagnolo and their classic yet contemporary styling. The Campagnolo components and the Genesis Equilibrium are a match made in bike geek heaven!
The Genesis Equilibrium fits the bill perfectly!
Andy, we wish you many long happy rides on your lovely new steed!!

beautiful bike and groupset suits it much better than futuristic 105. Definitely gives it a touch of class. And all rollin on open pros - excellent. Wise choice dear boy and a bike to see you through many seasons. I may do the same build myself except veloce all round and campy wheels to match.anonymouse said

lovely bike and set up. Could you easily attach a back pannier rack? Would you recommend this model for audax/ light touring?Justin said

So it's possible to put the campagnolo brakes on the frame? Aren't they supposed to be too short for the 57 mm brake fittings?Nihama said
