Is that a 2014 3700? I almost bought that one but it was a bit out of my price range for a designated commuter, especially since I have my nicer roadie to roll around on.

What rack is that on the back? I couldn't get one to fit with the disc brakes on mine because Trek has used the hole to hole the brake caliper on.

Big update on the Klein this weekend. Put a Surly 1X1 fork, Continental Sport Contact 26 x 1.6's, Fyxation pedal straps, and a Selle An-Atomica saddle on it. This has become my fun-commute bike! This thing is FAST now.....and lighter than my road bike. Such a blast.

This is my new commuter -a 56cm Soma Double Cross Graphite. The frame arrived a few weeks ago, and then was mostly built using parts from my old bike (wheelset, drivetrain, brifters, handlebar & tape, saddle, bottle cage) + some new parts: seatpost & clamp, touring pedals and brakes (Tektro AL926 mini-V). This frame is a bit longer than my old one so I have to switch to shorter stem. I have not had the chance to weight the bike, but it feels significantly lighter than my alloy Felt QX75 bike, the ride is much smoother, steadier, and faster pick-up on any given terrain. Overall I'm impressed and overjoyed with this built, thanks to Soma!! Rack and fenders are in the pipeline, definitely not in a too far future. :)
Sorry for the low quality image, it was taken using a tablet.

Nice bike. I plan to order one of these this fall.

What is your saddle height?

Nice ice utility bike, Joey! I like the red highlights. What handlebar tape do you use?

Thank you.

I think it was this? Fizik Microtex Handlebar Tape - Mountain Equipment Co-op. Free Shipping Available Or the house brand equivalent. I like it since it is not prone to look dirty and has stayed bright the last 4 months. It is thin and not padded but that is my preference.

I dunno.... nice bike and all, but looks a bit cluttered. Do you really need all that stuff attached to such a pretty bike?

Now how is the best way to attach the turbine to the rack? Zipties or mechanics wire?

Fly up to RDU and give a brother (and his kids) a joyride!

Yes! Avanti II. Sorry, though, I am just a tech. No rides from me. Years ago (again) I was flown to Sarzana, Italy do do some engine work on one of the Guardia Costa's P166's. THAT was pretty nifty.
