That is a gorgeous bike you got there! Love that color.

Upgrades
Seatpost: Ritchey Comp
Brakes: Ultegra
Pedals: Shimano PD-EH500/ PD-M540
Wheelset: Velocity A23 32h
Crankset: Sram Omnoms (on my other blue Classic, the red one has the stock Andel crank)
Saddle: Ergon SM
Paint (obviously).
Chain: KMC z8.3

Otherwise, everything else (except brake cables I think) are stock.

I upgraded the seatpost because it kept slipping on the stock one bolt post and every time I'd hit a hole, the seat would tilt upwards at a very uncomfortable angle. Anybody else have/had this issue?

I bought a new wheelset right before I got hit by a car back in June 2020. Still have to true the stock wheels that were on there at the time. I'm running the stock wheelset on my other blue Classic and it's awesome.

So far the powder coat still looks brand new, even after crashing (again) at 25mph. If you're looking for a well priced, great powdercoat in NYC, check out Espo's in Staten Island.
