Can't bring it into the office, I wouldn't even think of asking. But we do have a secure garage.

One of the few set ups I've seen recently that looks good with hammered fenders. Well put together bike.

Don't wish to hijack the thread, but I do have one quick question... Do those type of bike racks damage the bike or wheel in the long run?
BTW, that's one wicked ride!!!

Doubt that these hooks hurt the bike. The same might not be true for the back of short, weak or disabled cyclists that have to lift the bike over their head to that awkward position without help; same applies to roof racks on cars. This is one application where light bikes are a big advantage over heavy accessory laden bikes.

Oh I remember you sent me a pm but I couldn't reply back due to my low post count. My bike is just a 78' Schwinn Traveler III hi-ten steel frame with a single speed conversion. The bike is quite light for what it is, weighing at 22lbs respectively.

We have smaller versions of these bike racks that only accommodate a wheel.
If there is enough space I always park mine accross them and lock it as usual through the frame.
No way would I just lock it through the wheel.
