specs:
custom Bike Friday Pocket Rocket w/ rear track dropouts (130 rear spacing)
Phil LF track hubs laced to Alex R390 rims
Sugino 75 cranks on Phil BB
KMC kool chain
eggbeater pedals
King headset
Kalloy seatpost (will replace with a Thompson elite when my shim arrives)
Old cut-down Brooks saddle
Dimension stem (will be replaced when I find something I like better)
My favorite chop'n'flop hbars
super-light old Dia-Compe brake lever
Tektro (shimano 105 knockoff) front brake. (will probably replace when I care more.)

I had it sized off of my 61cm Masi 3V, and I must say that the ride is remarkably similar...may even sell the Masi now. Weight (w/o tool bag, pump, water bottle) is a hair under 20#)
