haha. I like you're style. Definitely something I've done on the floor of my room. So, what bar tape, chain, and cables+housing are you going to get?

I actually didnt even notice that it was misplaced, I spent about 30 seconds setting up and taking the pic.

I have black housing and I'll go with black tape. I'm going to try to pick the frame up tomorrow and then on tuesday go to the shop and clean the threads up, face the head tube and cut the fork. Fingers crossed. I will just grab what ever 8sp chain is laying around.
