I ride a Mercian. But I have no interest in hanging out with Land Rover-driving yuppies like yourself. I have better things to do.

Thanks! They come faded now on the white frames. Decals are under the clear though. At some point I'll strip it all down when I get tired of the black and white and see what color strikes me then.
I was very excited to see that Tony was ghosting his decals on the white frames now though for sure!

That's funny because a black chainring is the plan. I found a great deal on this crankset that came with the white chainring. Just haven't changed it out yet. Black one will be coming at some point though.
Thanks for the comments...

I went without for a while because I find it comfortable being on the bar. On longer rides my hands sweat too much though, so I threw some on a week or so ago. Its just black though, really doesn't change the look. I just have it on the drops, crossbars are still clean.
