Custom paint. It'd still be below full MSRP.

Hawt, just like it is, in every frikkin' detail!

If you repaint it, its just another funny-looking plastic bike.

But that's just me - ymmv.

It's actually above 20° (it's 30° right now [HEAT WAVE!]) and the wife is home - was looking forward to a ride. Sleet just started to come down, of course.

I'm not usually a fan of the humpbacked frames - you can sometimes get away with it in the smaller sizes, but I think that, in the size Whooshie would likely need, it would probably look like a four-legger taking a dump.

If I remember correctly whooshiepantz rides a 56cm and that looks like about a 56cm in that pic.

Nice bike, old man. Question, though - is that the chair that you sit in when you tell the whippersnappers to get off of your lawn?

Soloist Assassin 01-27-13 01:40 PM

Looking good whooshiepantz! It needs a black saddle though. Not sure if I am feeling the sticker on the seat post either. Looks pretty good otherwise.

Jort pics don't count unless they're short enough for the pocket flaps to stick out.

wunderground.com says 70F on Tuesday but only 34F (with another chance of snow) on Friday.

What a facepalm.

Weather.gov says 50°F and 70% chance of rain on my birthday. I have mixed feelings about this.
