did you overnight that stem from Japan?

Doesn't look like the sunset to me. In fact, judging by the houses, I'd say it's a more outside district.

But my guess is as good as yours...

don't like the stem, rest is nice
what saddle is that?

Near Cliff House / VA Hospital. [Sold IRO to my brother in law.]

Just got mine recently, love it.

I like it.. Stem and all. It's good to see someone still have fun with bike builds rather than copy the same old boring stuff.

Risers, carbon tripsoke, super deep rear wheel. Yeah, no copying.

is this a good deal?

Subtract $25 for each time the seller used the word "fixie". I counted 7 times, including the title. Looks pretty beat up, worn out and cobbled up to me.

that's what i was thinking, but i can deal with a few paint chips, but lets see how willing he is to go down in price.

I just like to see people spend money(even on a budget frame) rather than hide all their pennies up their butt. I like riced out bikes. It takes me back. You keep doing you though.

new since June.
IRO Angus complete. with a few upgrades.

currently in the market for a small bike (Iro Heidi) but can't seem to track one down. ANyone have a lead?

Iro said they would have them stocked by the middle of this year but I guess not.

Can someone take a picture of their Mark V Pro seat stay bridge?

My frame is supposed to be a MVP (Tony even "confirmed.") but it's drilled for a rear brake, idk.
MVP aren't drilled for a rear brake right?

According to their website you are correct.

I've never posted my bike here, so here it is.

Useless post is useless.

Why do you say that ? With the apparent demise of IRO, it is now a rare vintage. You should repost it in C&V.

I want one of these. Really badly for some reason. Basically, as TT said, because they're dying and I feel like I'll never be alb to get one again :(

Rip iro :(

It isn't useless... it is very tastefull. I think that if I ever come across an IRO for a good price I'll pick one up. There happens to be one of those group buy frames on my local CL... but the price isn't right.

What's with the reports of IRO's demise? Website is still up. Looked like they were taking some time off in the fall, but are they really toast? I hope not!
