Thanks! I appreciate it! It's my first custom build, but definitely not my first bike ;)

Started as a stock Fuji Track...no pic from when it was new, but here it is with everything replaced except the frame and wheels. I don't know what hubs are in these wheels, but they are keepers, so I'm gonna rebuild the wheels with silver rims (aerohead, fusion or cxp33), then I think I'll be done with this one.

That black and brown IRO is probably my favorite looking bike on SSFG, though it would look more proportional with a bigger frame. Is that cloth tape in the first picture?
