Got my new bike yesterday and spent last night and this morning getting everything assembled and adjusted. Sorry there's no white garage door but it's raining and I don't have a garage anyway, just a carport. So I hope a white front door will work. :rolleyes:

Sadly I decided to sell my other CX bike. :cry: But I don't feel bad. It went to a young cyclist who will use it to commute to work. He said his commuter bike was stolen recently. :(

I'm sure you did not mean to make that rather obvious assembly error which will render the bike unsafe at any speed, send it to me and I will fix it for you and test it to make sure it functions properly. I should have it back to you by May.

No, but I did throw in a pair of brand new 700x28 Vittoria Randonneur Cross tires. The bike had 700x30 Michelin Mud2 cyclocross tires. Not the best for commuting.

Shouldn't the title be "N and N - 1"?

No. The Kona Jake arrived on Saturday morning. The Giant was sold late Sunday afternoon. So for over 24 hours it was N+1.

The outside of the front door is red. That wouldn't do at all. You wouldn't be able to see the red bike in front of a red door. :twitchy:
