Other than the Garmin and the SPD pedals looks quite vintage. I have swapped in my apple green B17 and am looking for some nice green bar tape to match. The Honey B67 I purchased for the RH now lives on the Royal Nord. Sorry about the phone quality pictures, forgot to pick up a camera on my way out.



I like that colour.
I've been riding my Rodin Hood Bitsa everyday this summer to work.
Last week a car turned in front of me and I locked up the rear wheel.
On a positive note the Toronto Vintage Bicycle Show was quite a success.
I didn't take any photos....
