Rotrax

Bought this a few months back, been enjoying it very much. Handmade in 2008 Reynolds 531 pro, road geometry. The guy I got it from had it built by a local fixie shop, he kept the ugly pink/white(!) wheels so I got some Wabis for it (awesome light wheelset BTW).

He had it set up with a straight bar, and the goofy tall stem. Other parts choices are questionable too , like those fugly cranks. I added the Nashbar track bar (nice comfy not real 'track' bar BTW) & MKS pedals and have just been enjoying it.

To do:
- polished stem in a more useful length for me
- better cranks (IRD Defiant probably)
- maybe bullhorns just 'cause they seem comfy on the street

I paid about 1/4 of what he did for just the frame so I can't really complain.
