I took off the Wald basket cause it won't see much use until spring/summertime. Full commuter mode now, wish I had a second pair of 31.8 drops because I can't stand risers.

Is that really a downward sloping top tube, or just some optical illusion?

its funny, i have never owned a bike that gets so much love as this one. i treat it horribly[super rough urban commute duty, rarely washed or lubed, crashed often, ghostridden, and thrown over fences into the woods] and people always say 'sell it to me, i wont ruin it' but i cant ever. she is so good to me i think the only way we could ever part ways is in death.

I will have to measure the top tube to floor because looking at it right now on level ground, it does indeed appear to have some downward sloping of the top tube (just not as drastic as it looks in the picture)
