I would have gone with silver or black instead of the green, but bikes are a means of personal expression after all. In general though, that bike looks top notch - the detail on the stem faceplate is not something I would usually expect from Bontrager, nice.

Haha, the dummy hood actually looks like it's growing a lever now, kudos on the neato tape job.

55 miles in the rain.
switched back to the 48t and got a gold 410 chain.
i didn't ride it but it still made a nice destination. riding it in this would be severely dumb.

Oh that's nice...neat shoes!
The rain up here kept me indoors for the most part of the day, only went for a 20miler.

Same story with my sneakers, I think I took the summer sun for granted and forgot about the Vancouver rain...

hello all, another NewB here.
I recently picked up the 2010 Fuji Classic Track in black. so far i installed a new 17t cog and lock ring from eighthinch, front shimano 105 black brake and a set of dave mirra bmx pedals with chicago wig 3" straps. i am having trouble getting into the pedals and straps so i am ordering some mks sylvan track pedals with clips and straps tomorrow. so far i am loving the bike especially since i changed the gearing it was a 46/15 which was a bit rough since i had not been on a bike in about 18 years. the 46/17 is much better.
I'll take some nice outside shots this week and post back.

I see....still not making sense
No, it actually weighs around 20lbs with sugino alluminum cranks, but atleast you got the aerospoke part right...I guess your not a complete dip****

I'm not here to make sense, I'm here to point out the obvious.

who said I was joking? I'm really bout to swap my carbon cranks and ceramic bb back to the stock parts, then sell that crankset on ebay. Should get a nice chunk of change for a them, seeing as retail for both totals around $600. Looks like my bikes gonna bump up to around 15.5 lbs...

it was low 14's with my alpha q full carbon fork, wrapped aluminum bars, and aluminum stem, but now i have the stock carbon fork w/aluminum steerer and a 1-piece full carbon bar/stem without tape, so that probably cancels out, then I was running the stock cheep-v front wheel which weighed a lot, so the aerospoke probably doesn't weigh much more. I'll work on getting it accurately weighed.

I sand blasted the frame and had it powder coated clear. Looks like a metalic grey paint job but tough as nails! I painted the Judy with a ralley flag pattern but will be getting it powder coated red soon. Checkout those old Avid Arch Rival brakes. Never getting rid of those! This was my first build.
