nothing special, I was thinking of making this thing more aggressive by throwing a wolf 650c fork, not so sure though...

Volume cutter?
I think you should sell it, as a FSFG frame is not the place to start if you're looking for aggressive.

Made a few more changes...
Swapped the cyclometer, new rear light, and put on some new Ergon Gp5 bars ends to make a hybrid bullhorn bar
Along with adding some new rubber, Vittoria Rando Hypers in 38mm. They are really nice tires and can see why so many speak well of them

Adriano's a guy now? Have we confirmed it? The video of shim ringing his bell had some pretty girly hands

wabi lost a one of a kind and underpriced product for something thats easy to get for less elsewhere, and thats a bummer.
and as solbrothers and i have said, the mash is centered around an intentionally flawed element, the head tube being way too short, so the flopped stem makes perfect sense.

that's why I did it yeah. I wanted to improve the stiffness but didn't want a ridiculous saddle to bar drop. reach feels about the same as spacers +flat but may not look as good (nothing sexy about an erect stem). I'll probably cut some of that steerer tube eventually too

i had a downward sloping toptube and a zero degree stem. not only was it awkward, but somewhere an engineer was facepalming. upward sloping top tubes increase stiffness.

Becuase he either lowered his car ghetto style or lowered it and left the horrible camber on it and didnt get it aligned and enjoys paying for new tires far more often than a regular person does and because he wants ricer burner cred, "mah wheels got mad camber yo"

Chain
Is that a chain being used as a saddle anti-theft device, or is that how you carry a spare? Or am I wrong about both of those guesses?

Your cog is slipping.
Just so you guys know (if you don't already), you can add someone to your 'ignore' list and never have to see another post by them by viewing their profile and clicking 'add to ignore list'.

This is my new commuting SS bike.
I wanted to use Road wheel, then I ordered a custom frame in Kobe, Japan.
The rear end O.L.D is 130mm, with quick release.
This bike uses Kaisei 8630R that is usally used for Keirin frame. Well stiff and very smooth.
