I think the camera angle is playing some visual tricks on me. The whole bike looks like it's about to collapse forward. The rack, in particular, seems to be slanting and the trunk bag doesn't help with that visual effect.

More concretely, I don't care for the Forte saddle.

On the other hand, is that a Versa brifter hooked to an Alfine hub? Assuming 'yes' this bike is a few easy steps away from smokin' hot.

The more I look at that friggin picture I'm calling my own bike a not! The shot's at an angle, then I rotated it in Photobucket. Who knows, maybe it's skewed, too. What a mess! It looks like a hideous jalopy.

Yes, the shifter is a Versa.

Anyway, here's my other commuter. After this, I got nothing.
