Took some more snaps today now that I got my cam back. Vittoria Randonneur Pro tires feel really amazing and comfortable. I really like my bike
Stella Azzura Eleganza bar tape has a very grippy feeling, but nice to the touch
Avid BB7 Disc Road Adapter for regular "short reach" brake levers
I had to spread out the fender struts and use a plastic cylinder and washer to get around the disc caliper without bending the struts
Used a Problem Solver's Travel Agent to allow use of the rear V brake with regular brake levers

Well it's a new fork, so I'm not going to cut too much before it's dialed in.
Also my bikes always have high seatpost/stems & short top tubes because I'm freakishly built at 5' 6" with a 32" inseam. I'm all legs. If I had a custom frame it'd probably have like a 56 seat tube and a 53 top tube if it's even possible, haha!

My ex-girlfriends dad has an identical Dean with old-school Paul goodies. I've always love those Playstation controller logos, haha!

Do it...get a SS mtb
I want to build it back up into gears someday...I think...but for now I have the White Industries eno crank and hub set with the eno brake mount.
It's a fun, comfortable bike that weighs in at 23lbs. on my antique hanging scale.

Naw, some of the parts I had lying around waiting to be assembled. I also do a lot of selling with acquisition though to supplement the new parts purchases (and I'm a rabid deal hunter as well who uses price match features on sites as well as coupon codes). I sell what I don't use so others can enjoy it.
