lowndragon, I think your bike is nice. A lot of people make their bikes to their liking, for they are the ones and usually the ONLY ones to ride it. People say things about my bike sometimes. That's only because they may not have done this or done that to theirs, yet I did to mine. You see that Kona in my avatar? I was going to put a wicker basket on it. Sure I got some snickers but I also got some support. Needless to say, I didn't do it. My brother photoshopped a basket on it and I didn't go for it.

So enjoy your bike, RIDE your bike, and remember - it's YOUR bike. Put together to YOUR liking. And if you like it, then that's all that really matters. Thanks for sharing your pic.

And please don't take what NoF3ar said personally. He is a pretty cool guy and he is not the type to try to hurt feelings. I don't see him as a mean person at all. He's just saying that thin crank arms aren't his type, that's all.
