NICE JOB! Are you indexing Road bar-cons with a mountain drivetrain? How's that working for you?

She rides like a dream. I actually rarely shift gears on her as my commute is all flat.

Very nice. All these posts suddenly about XO's makes me want to return to my neglected XO frame I have hanging around.

To wit: anyone have a loooong stem that they want to get rid of? Needs a super-long steer; for 26 inch wheels and road brakes. Purple would be nice.

Nice little bike. I hate to be overly critical but the stem kinda spoils it for me.
