Ink 1373, yeah i got the bike. I am currently working in the middle of the Catskills m-f. the bike got delivered to the wrong house, and the people were out of town. the neighbors said it sat there for over a week. but it is here and looks great. I bought the bike as a gift, for my friend, and he has a very elegant and understated set of aesthetics, so i think he would like to strip it down and leave it or do a very basic paint scheme, that is why i started the thread. anyhow i left feedback for you the bike is perfect and the midwest rules, thanks alot jamisonjamison
