Nice bike. The stem has the bar a bit too high for me. As you get more miles on it, you may consider flipping the stem to put the bar a tish lower than your saddle. Again, that's just me though.

Congrats! My Homer (the one without Santa garb) didn't like looking at my bikes. I suppose he was more interested in drinking his beer and flipping channels.

Nice ride!
Is that a Crank Bros. pump? If so, I hope you have better luck with it than I did. You may also consider it's location as you may bump it taking bottles in and out..

very very cool bike!
I gotta tell ya, it kinda freaked me out when I saw the pic because I just bought the exact same bike yesterday. (your bike is located in the very same area as in my house next to the door) Your doorway looks alot like mine, then I saw the lantern and realized somebody didn't break into my house and took a picture
In fact it even has all the same accessories in all the same places as my bike...pump, bottle holders, etc...and I too and new to biking and haven't even taken it out for a ride yet.
So congratulations to you too! I know you're gonna love it.

That silver bar tape is really cool. You need to get some super shiny silver lycra shorts to wear while on that beauty.

I've never seen silver bartape before. Pretty cool. Now all you need is silver shorts, silver jersey, silver shoes, silver helmet and some silver body-paint. Then you'll be all set.
