I like it. But it doesn't look waterproof. Is she a fair weather rider?

if your looking to run a titec h-bar and you have seperate shifters and brakes you will have to mount one or the other on the upper loop both of them wont fit on the lower with the grips installed. if you decide you want to try the titec out get it off pricepoint they are 39.98+shipping.i have shifters and brakes in one single unit and i still had to trim about 1/2" off my grips. the jones loop h-bar can accomadate both shifters and brakes as the rear grip area is longer but they are 120.00 which is why im trying the titec first. also with either i believe you will have to swap stems possibly, im not to sure on this. but i did have to lengthen my cables as they were to short hope it helps and goodluck so far mine are working great

Oddly enough, the riding is much less painful than standing and walking as long as I take it easy.

Oh, and in between the Triumph & the Miayta was this oddball hybrid that I created:

1950 Raleigh Sports

Picked the bike up on Thursday morning and have ridden it nearly 80 km already... added the rack, light, and pump last night to make it more utilitarian.

Nashbar X build. My first drop bar bike, rolling on my first homebuilt wheels:

Built this to race 'cross, but scheduling conflicts prevented participation this year. So I mounted fenders and bought a set of studded Hakkas so that I can use it as the backup 'muter/cat 6 race bike this winter. Hopefully I won't be working weekends next fall, so that I can get out and race the bike for real.

How are you liking the Avenir Panniers? I was about to pull the trigger on some myself but am torn between the sensible purchase and the expensive one (Ortlieb Back Roller Classic). Keep trying to convince myself that it's a sound investment but I'm about to be in major debt and strapped for cash (dental school).

I love it, very clever! It reminds me of a cool handmade felted wool bag that someone was showing off in C & V recently. I love how organic bags like this look compared to the typical modern plastic & cordura high-tech bikeshop stuff.

All right Sixty Fiver, do you actually keep track of how many bikes you own??? :D

Was just given a complete, but disassembled Moulten Mk2 which I plan to customize and build up to resemble this... thi8s will be awhile as I have to do the frame mods and get it powder coated and build some new high performance wheels.

There is a Dawes Kingpin folder I inherited... figure this will be an all rounder with an SA 8 speed cassette / drum in the rear and was given the '72 Raleigh as a wedding present in September.

I should start a spreadsheet but think I was at 17 before all these bikes fell on me.

Dual PB turbo's! You should put them both on solid and use the blink mode as a turn signal. Of course, that's not practical.
