DoshKel 03-19-06 01:47 AM

I really like it. REALLY like it.

I actually think the stem looks cool on your bike. I don't really like it usually... but really like it on yours.

Cool.

I would expect that elves would know how to forge a dropout, but ah well.

You could also be a cheerleader for the high school in my home town.

I taped off the lugs with some painters tape and just used some yellow spray paint.

For the writing on the frame I used a car touch up paint pen.

Sweet Elvish you got there Mitchell! From the looks of it I would say your rear wheel was probably built by the best bike mechanic ever.
