I was hoping that by taking off all the extra 10-speed derailleurs, shifters, etc, I'd have a cleaner look, but I seemed to have made it a bit..uglier! I'd never used drop bars so I went the safe route with mtb ones, maybe that's the problem? Here are before and after pics: ...maybe replacing the drop bars would help with the look? I would appreciate any suggestions! Don't take any offense, I just threw out ideas to make it look more streamlined with what most consider "clean". And oh yeah, take off the cantilever. Drops/bullhorns look real nice when you have a cross lever near the stem instead of traditional placing. |
Please leave the rear brake on.

finally took a couple photos of the iro. soon to be retired if the next ride ever gets out of bike shop limbo...

months and months later it's finally built... the bottom bracket is wrong, I called answer to ask them what size bottom bracket I needed to use with their cranks to get a 42cm chain line, they said 113, so that's what I got, and with that bottom bracket I have a 50cm chain line... argh.. oh well it'll be raining all week so I guess that will make waiting till payday friday easier.

That is a GREAT looking Fuji, and a great looking IRO above that! I can't see TN!'s bareknuckle pics though.

Judging by the fork and nude-ness, I'd put money on Rush Hour.
