I put the plug and play fenders on my sequoia and ended up removing them. the front fender "plug" attachment bar is right at foot level and has a minuscule amount of clearance between attachment bar and shoe toe. I kept breaking the plastic clamp that hold attachment bar to fender. It is a shame Specialized put such little thought into the fender design. Fenders made for each bike doesn't seem like too much to ask.

Here's my commuter

2016 GT Grade Sora.

currently, i'm using an ortlieb sportpacker plus on my drive side and an Ortlieb Office bag on the other. the rack is an Axiom Streamliner DLX disc. for lights - a Cygolite Pro 150 on the back and a Cygolite Metro 1100 Lumen pro up front with a Lezyne Super GPS for a head unit. the Fenders are Planet Bike 35mm the for tires the GP4000II 28c. i keep a spare tube in saddlebag and a patch kit and i use a Topeak Racerock HP for a pump.

the only thing i plan on changing (for now) is upgrading the groupset to all Tiagra stuff to clean up the wires and improve shifting. the current set up works OK however, the front derailler is a little stiff and doesn't always shift right for me. otherwise, i love riding this thing

My Indy Fab:

new to me; essentially stock untouched since 20-25 yrs ago... I didn't check who made the tires. All the rest of the components (including wheels) are Tom Ritchey. I am going to switch the pedals and saddle out but nothing else. Maybe some 2.35 big apples down the road.

My mule
 

I'm buying car parts today, so loaded with two heavy brake rotors and a set of brakes. I'd estimate the weight to be around 40+ pounds, maybe more.

Just purchased her a few days ago. Will be adding a rear rack and another bottle cage soon. Will look into possibly a front rack and clipless pedals.

Is that the Crockett?

Here is my other mule, but only for short rides and grocery runs to the nearby supermarket.

Bling! The thingy for your straddle cable even matches the bike. Well played sir.

1996 Raleigh Talon CX- Fixed up for townie/commuter duty

Last Friday I went over to Daley Plaza for Bike-to-Work Day. My wife pointed out the guy at the Dark Matter tent photo-bombing me. :D
Then I went to work.

EDIT: Tilt head to left to see the Picasso in its normal orientation.

Wow, that's a gorgeous bike! Don't you love the ES frame? I got one used on eBay and built it with cheap stuff as a housewarming present for my brother. Since we're the same size I took a few rides on it, and I think it's probably my favorite frame I've ever ridden.

Sweet ride

Ohio Trekker:
That bike must weigh like a 100 lbs you must have some legs of TITANIUM. LOL
More Power too you I couldn't bare to ride something so heavy everyday.

Yes, I love this frame. I was all about the crabon fibber, but I think it'll be steel for me.

Just installed an Origin8 porteur rack on my Jamis Aurora. Have always liked the way they look but bunjeeing my work tote was a pain today. May go back to the trusted Wald 137.

Here's my Soma Fog Cutter, 61cm. I'm 6' 3" with a 36" inseam. I've had it since January 2017 with approximately 1000 miles on it. Put it together with a mix of old components transferred from past rigs along with some new parts that I'd been interested in trying out. The TRP Spyre calipers are a nice evolution beyond the BB7. I'm using the 32mm Panaracer Gravelkings. I have not been happy with them, too many punctures including my first ever double flat. I've installed a set of Mr. Tuffy's and have been really surprised by their performance. The frame is a keeper. The Tange tubeset is legit, plenty of clearance for 32mm tires and fenders, and double rear eyelets. My only complaint is that the paint job is not very durable.

Very nice bike. I think that is the first Fog Cutter I've seen built-up and I like your component choices. Sorry to hear the paint is fragile but I like the color a lot.

My old/new commuter. I've had this bike for three years, but never ride it mostly because I don't want to scratch it up and it has gravel tires on it. This week I decided to put my beater commuter aside for a while and get this puppy some action. I decided not to put a rear rack on it because I've got a nice roadrunner commuter backpack (for carrying my laptop which I carry regardless because I don't trust panniers) and also all my other bikes have rear racks. I've been holding a Nitto front rack and a Velo Orange handlebar bag for a couple of years with the intent to use them on my rando rides (not really into randonneuring) so figured I'd put it on this bike so I could carry my work shoes and lunch in without a rear pannier. I've updated it a bit. It's been converted from down-tube shifters to bar ends (using riv pods), Brooks saddle, and has a deore xt rear derailleur (came with it when I purchased it). It's one hell of a smooth ride:

Congratulations on a super nice build. I'm curious about that horn.
