maybe not the best photos, but i'm very happy with how the build turned out.. a bit more practical to ride around these parts than a track bike.

not sure discs are really necessary either, i did sw8 fixay skids locking up the rear with ease fully seated

Here's a crappy photo of my Long Haul Trucker. Just built it back up after replacing the fork so I have a ridiculous spacer stack until I decide how long to cut my fork.

Pretty much the only acceptable gold component on a bike is the chain...

It's a touring, doesn't matter if it looks odd. Just replace those long pull levers unless you intend on getting v-brakes.

No, but I know where Dave-o got his name.
Arundel is a local company and they make amazing cages and saddle bags.
I also prefer their gecko grip to just about any tape on the market.
