That Tommasini has sealed the deal; no more funky colored tires for me anymore. I'm only mounting gumwalls from now on.

On closer look though, it appears to be some sort of cheap Walmart knockoff track bike that will need to be disposed of immediate... I'll do you a favor, you can just ship it to my house, k

Those Somax wheels will look a zillion times better if you take off the decals though.

WD40 on a paper towel can get sticker residue off. Then use dishsoap+water to get the oil off.

here's mine. still needs bar tape and a front brake. super fun on my commute. currently 44/17, spin spin spin. such a good workout compared to my roadbike. pardon the cellphone pics. my camera was out of juice.
how old is that soma frame? I didn't know they came in that pinkish color.
I normally don't like pink bikes but yours looks really good. Props.
