it looks like your fenders are broken, better send the bike to me for proper disposal.

unless its a complete turd, any vehicle in olive drab gets a hot from me

..unless its that goddamn speedvagen urban racer.

your handlebar positioning is hideous.

I've updated pretty much everything since this was last posted on the internet.

Hot! Defineatly #slamthatstem worthy

HOTTTT!! what model bars are you using?

Thanks! And those are 3t tornova handlebars. I just put them on but they seem really comfy.

This gets my thumbs up.

Very nice

Upgraded the stem/bars to and changed a few other things since I last posted.

This is how it photographs with a little bit more natural lighting. I think it looks sexy . I also dropped the stem a little.

Nice! Definitely gets a hot now.

I think it would be hotter if you had a normal saddle and could show a little more Thomson post. Saddle might be comfy but it doesn't fit the bike.

Hot. THM M3 cranks would be sweet. You'd have the option of adding a SRM if you decided to dump the powertap and build something lighter.

that's a keeper

down periscope, otherwise great.

Looks kind of agricultural, but well-sorted. Question is, does it actually work as well as it looks to?

What bike is that? Definitely hot.

Well, I just did a century on it yesterday (and 779 miles with 46,500ft of climbing in August) so it holds it's own.

The frame and fork are a 2014 KHS CX100 cross bike, but pretty much everything else has been replaced. So I guess I essentially built a bike off of a frameset.

The shorty fenders are just to help keep the bike a little cleaner-- the junction above the bottom bracket would fill with road gunk something terrible, so I put on the rear fender, then realized the bike looked weird with just one fender. So the vestigial front fender is pretty much just cosmetic.

Well, kudos on both your century and your bike!
Can't believe I never heard of KHS before (or at least it never made an impression before) - they make a LOT of different bikes! No surprise I haven't seen one around, though, since there is no dealer in the entire NYC metro area.
See, that's what I was asking about - whether what looked functional really was. I think it would look fine with just the rear fender, but better with both if they weren't cropped.

This is a nice bike. The saddle is...eh.....but I will say this bike is screaming for some alloy braking surfaces.

HOTT! What size is that? And what wheels are those? My only complaint is mismatched tires.

I seriously thought the third photo was a picture of a bike on fire...

I put the handlebar back to normal. That painting is huge 4 by 6 feet

I want to defend that saddle for the following reasons. It's not a swoopy-tubed bike and the Brooks matches that aesthetic. in fact, I like it better than some of the droopy nose varieties. Watching the Vuelta today one of the riders was suffering from saddle sores and it reminded me that comfort is of prime importance. of course, this observation does not apply to those big gel mattress saddles on your grandma's bike.
