You got it

Well done! It's my undercover city bike/budget build. It's fairly light, you don't need to worry about paint chips or rain and it blends into the background. It doesn't look like much, but it's a nice rider! I ALWAYS pull the seatpost, so no one would really see the Brooks. It's either with me or under me. The aero levers/v-brakes work extremely well...but the shifting is not my favorite. I need to pull the bearings and make it truly friction.
