So a kinda random question...
Anyone rocking fenders of anykind on their gb iro. if so, what kind, and have ya had any problems. I kinda want to get some as I got a stripe of sand up my back last week from riding in the rain and runoff from construction.

I thought it was cool when I saw one build in front of my school and was talking to a friend about how mine was going to be similar. Never seen it since.

Cheapie build. I have a hockey stick style chainguard I want to put on there as well, but since I'm riding the bike I figure it's post-able. Key details: B-17 saddle, bar-end bell that you twist to ring, no quick release nothing, and Power Grips with the straps swapped to hide the ********-ass logo.

Finally got around to ordering my drivetrain parts this morning.. hopefully I'll have them by the end of next week. Now all I need to buy is everything except the frame/cranks/chainring/cog/handlebar/bb.

Well, I have purchased all my parts, but it will be 3 weeks before my wheels are built and shipped to me. It will be at least a week for my other parts to show up. I will definitely post when it is done.
