Hey Guys I'm Back. I finally got around to snapping a few photos of my bike after I put a little elbow greese into it. I stripped it and painted it. I taped off the forks and drop outs to reveal some of the chrome that was under the old paint. I guess you could say I hiked up her skirt. I replaced the seat with a brooks b17 and taped off the handlebars with brooks tape. I put corks from my favorite beer in the handlebars instead of the brooks bar ends. I replaced the cables, and the brake pads, pulled everything apart, cleaned, buffed, and polished. I still have the original wheels...in my closet. I replaced the wheels with mavic cxp22's that I picked up off of CL, and the rear sprocket is an SRAM 7 cog configuration. Everything works awesome. I even pull my daughter around my hilly neighborhood with it. Check it out!
