The dealer customized it on the spot per my preferences and I liked the read color he had so did not have to special order.

He also had fascinating stories about his bike rides (including Brompton centuries and a Moluton UK to Russia trip) and his meeting with Alex Moluton but this i s another story.

In respective, getting easy wheels was not a good choice, compared to an after market inline wheel, but that's minor.

The bike looks simple clean and mean and it feels stiffer than I expected.

I will post the obligatory pictures from home.

Thanks again,

Kam
