I come bearing pics! (though not as fashionable as others)

PACKAGING FAIL- **** UPS, 3 days late and the packaging barely held


Tried to capture the sparkle in the sunshine here



Front wheel barely has clearance for me...






Here's my review of the stripper:
pros:
Super light (compared to my old roadie conversion)
powerful front brake
good looking paint and frame
awesome value

cons:
Super doofy gold parts. Why would I want a gold chain/pedals with any paint color?
pedals seem a little small
tires seem a little plasticy/cheap, but have worked fine
Had to cut the front brake line by 60% because it was way too long... a little strange.

All in all everything is awesome, great value for teh moniez. I will be replacing the gold chain and pedals ASAP, and adding a 17t fixed cog on the hub.
