Here's the most recent one from today. I keep upgrading - it's a disease. New here is the stem and carbon non-setback post. I also cut the extra slack in the steerer tube. I'm now running about 7" of saddle to bar drop.

Confession: After completely stealing your idea of putting electrical tape over the colorful part of my Pista decals, I realized you too are from Portland. To make matters worse, I have the exact same handlebars.
If you see me riding around, feel free to either knock me on head, or say thank you for the flattery.
Also, thanks for the ideas; my bike looks great, as does yours.

made fun of for.....? there're no haters in Tokyo (well, not to your face anyway)
it looks a lot more comment-worthy when those bars are flipped upside down like an evil silver moustache.

adhesion promoter first, paint second.
purple tires are rare, rare rare. PM is probably a better bet than this thread unless the poster still frequents.
