heres more of the story...

ignore the pictures for now. my bike will be set up differently. well im debating a switch of frames, but then i would have to sell this one and what not... i don't know if people want a frame i have dinged up a lot.

i am currently a messenger in sf, so i ride about 30-40 miles 3 days a week when i work. although its on and off riding for 8 hours and not a few hours on.

i want to figure out gear ratios people have used or suggest.

as for the saddle im not going brooks. being vegan it would be weird to be sitting directly on cow skin. plus i would have to buy a brand new one to form to me.

also debating bars, racks front or back, and i can't remember what else.

ill be traveling light since i wear the same clothes for a week even when working. and i will be doing this cheaply. if you got anything else im open to hear it.
