Nice looking. Hope you don't regret running those outer pins through backward.

Building up this baby identical to the Niner Ergon Stan's team bikes, which, at wholesale (due to my bike shop employment) is going to run me $1152.73, including tax. Not too bad. That is without a drivetrain, as I already have that from my old bike. Should be a sick build.

Building a single speed out of my forge. I needed new cables so I was all like whatever.... and I got a sweet deal on a Soulcraft tensioner. Cassette and RD/FT and Rings weighed about a million pounds. First time I can think of that the rear end weighs less than the front on one of my bikes. Wonder if I will be able to feel it.

Anyone interested in buying a Specialized GT?
