    thanks!
    but the chainring's not black, the previous owner called it "midnight blue" and it's a non-njs chainring

    Unless you're a Keirin racer, it doesn't matter.

    at first I want to buy a Suntour Superbe 49T NJS, but the seller didn't gave any response to my message and I really want those 49T chainring. Thankfully 2 days later my friend offers me that Dura-Ace 7600 49T Non-NJS, so I bought it from him without any hesitate.

    My Steamroller. Hopefully the chode stem + risers don't put me into jackass territory.

    Some of that, plus some slightly weird proportions (really long legs). I could probably stand to HTFU and stretch out a bit, though.

    undetected sarcasm leads to long and boring responses. You aren't racing keirin and you are riding a conversion, therefore, you don't need the parts and if you want them you are missing the main one (hint= your frame).

    when you say "hint= your frame" what exactly do you mean?

    So mean... there's nothing wrong with a conversion... anyhow I'm pretty sure that frame is on the way out for the OP.

    Nashbar Nekkid. Really fantastic bike, yes I realize it's silly that any single component on the thing is worth more than the frame itself, but hey, it rides great, what more do you want?

    I want to build one up as a light aluminum/rain/commuter bike. How's the weight?

    It's about 20lbs as pictured, and that's on a 58 cm frame with a fork that weighs about 3.5 lbs (real bad steel).
    So, take what you will from that, I think it's pretty light, a 56 with a carbon fork could easily be around 16lbs depending on the build I think.

    Love it... I would angle the bar up more though.

    Been riding it like that for months, felt fantastic, noticed it only as soon as I took that picture, and now it is really bothering me. Funny how those things are.

    Those are road drops I'm assuming? I'd angle the flat part parallel to the ground. Angled a tiny bit forward if that's your thing. I like that part for climbing and sprinting.

    PS : Your bike is making me want a dark blue bike with either dark gray or silver wheels.

    WTB Keirin frame in some kind of dark blue candy paint.
