I finally got my new baby out for her first road test yesterday. As luck would have it, I had a white garage door on hand for the occasion. It was foggy, so the light quality sucks in the pictures. I'll repost a porn shot once the new skewers arrive.
My initial reaction is WOW! She's light (15.24 lbs), corners on a dime, and accelerates like a ***** ape. I only did about 12 miles on her, as she had a few creaks and moans, and since it was so freakin cold I had my ears covered, I didn't want to have anything turn into a problem, so I dropped her off and finished my ride on my old steed as the mist turned to light rain.
I decided to name her "Twitchy".
