I got a 5' length of 3M Conspicuity reflective tape off eBay for a few bucks, chopped it up and decorated my kittier, so now this is what I will look like from behind in the dark (plus a red blinkie of course)

I actually don't know what the brand is, I bought it without any decals used at the local bike co-op, my best guess is Jamis? I bought most the parts as new takes offs from bike shops, eBay etc. it's also my MTB but I don't have any photos of it in that form yet(waiting for forks). I've always like the orca style schemes so I went ahead and did it.

Try looking for a serial number, mostly they're on the bottom bracket. With that you might be able to track it back to its roots.

Stopped to take a pic of my bike today to rest from riding in fresh snow!

My most recent commuter build. http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=357631 It's a Habanero Ti frame with Mavic Open Pros on Gatorskin 25's and SKS Longboards. I've only had it up and running for a week, but am finding it quite adequate for non ice and snow commutes.

Ti bike looks superb! :thumb:
|
I may have to get me a Habanero one of these days.
|
slowride, you and your bike look tough! :)

This is my work-end lock-up beater. Early 90s C'Dale M800 "Beast of the East" with typical cracked off plastic cable guides, 2-3 layers of spray bomb. - Double chainring (med, low) front shifted by Fox shock lockout switch to Suntour FD. - 8sp out back shifted by cheap Gripshift to Sachs New Success RD. - Innova studded tires. Not shown: - I bring a clipon rear fender with me, carry stuff in a Chrome backpack. - Bontrager Flare 1.5 blinky on my helmet; Niterider 350lumen hbar mount. I can't find studded tires in Birdy folding bike tire size (18"), so I do a two-bike commute, dedicated commuter to the bus station; bus; this bike to work. Once chances of snow and ice are over, this will come back home and resume mtn bike duty. |

I used to take pictures of every person (and bike) I would see commuting! It was fun to check out everyone's bikes!

In the winter a thermos of *bulletproof coffee or butter tea is a great thing to carry... the 500ml thermos also fits nicely in the back pocket of my regular panniers.
http://www.ravingbikefiend.com/bikep...ikes%20(1).JPG * bulletproof coffee contains butter, coconut oil, cream, and vanilla... it is hot, rich, and provides some quick calories. |
Can you post a recipe for that?

My daily commuter, all essentials go into my backpack...http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=358463

Weird. Today was the first time I've heard of bulletproof coffee and I have read about it on two separate forums.
