Nothing wrong with showing a little seatpost!
On a side note, is "Detonator" not just about the worst name you can think of for a tire? I have a pair on my other bike so no hate, but geez... was Maxxis Blowout already taken?
that's because I'm using a 'thin' saddle (Fi'zi:k Aliante) right now
but when I used the thick one (Sella Italia Condor saddle) the seatpost height's will be lowered
LOL
IMO Detonator sounds great to me
so when you tell people what tire are you using & you tell them "it's Detonator" their mind will explode a lil' bit LOL
Like this thread, this is my 1st conversion and still my all time favorite bike (out of all my bikes, not just conversions). Converted a road bike with broken shifter that I never used to ride.
my second, used frameset off CL, still sharing ENO wheelset w the LeMond. 14.08 lbs
My latest, $60 frameset off CL, my only SS.
looooooooooove that Lemond!
and that Fuji was great too, except I just don't like the fork...looks a bit tricky, I'm more into old-skool-akisu type

the bold ones, +1
