that spoke card is my wallpaper! I love it, props! http://www.ironicsans.com/images/anewhope.png

would look good with a brown Regal and bartape.

Thanks for the kind words guys, and Soil_Sampler thanks for the suggestions, that brown Regal is gorgeous!

The Brooks Swallow and tape (and pretty much the rest of the components except the Deep Vs) were left over from my other bike. Initially I felt the Brooks were a little off visually, but I've grown to love them because they're so comfy to use... the leather tape being especially nice to grip when climbing out of the saddle. I don't think bartape would be as nice on the hands. How is the Regal for comfort?

Cheers

as expected, they don't seem to be nearly as strong as deep vs but are still really solid for their profile.

pretty comfy for me. ymmv

Some new parts. A little over 15 lbs.:)

every time i see those leader frames, i can't help but stare at those dropouts and wonder what the hell went wrong in the design process.

apart from that, the bikes looking good. though the seat looks pretty damn painfull.

That is not mine I think I may have seen it before though. I do ride in that area occasionally. I'm usually more in the Somerville/Cambridge area.

a couple upgrades and some different bar setups...

This is exactly why I'm now regretting going with a quill stem. I'd love to be able to swap out my bars like this.

Nice bike.

i like it with the bullhorns, nicely done WD.

How can I copy and paste the picture? I like to show off mine too. Thx,

get a quill with a removable faceplate

i am still digging the jamis...my favorite is the flat bar set up

there are a few quill stems that open easily. i rock the ITM 800 open (in black)

Walking Disease, that bike is ****ing sick. Maybe my favorite I've seen on here.

really nice photos too...great background

nice looking fork, also.

I picked up a new Pearl like 2 weeks ago. *sigh*

Those Jamis frames are so slept on. Awesome bike.

walkingdisease- are you Curtis?

damn, didn't expect that kind of a response, thanks everyone.

@keenan: yessir :)
