bike back together..
did a ghetto touch up job on the 8 gillion chips in the paint.. looks ok from a distance...so whatever..
brake surfaces on wheels painted flat black..all stickers on the wheels removed..
and cleaned for the first time in a year.. yech.. whoops..
yeah yeah..all aesthetic, but whatever
sorry for the crap pics.. dunno why I chose the kitchen to take em.. crappy fluorescent light.
guess I should probably start training for the MS150 soon haha..only a few weeks.. 35 miles/week commuting isnt gonna cut it

NICE! With a capital N-I-C-E! Very sexy colour! And BTW, I've got the same fridge. Kenmore right?

Did your spinergys originally come with a fixed hub? How did you find those, or set them up? Despite the negative things I have heard about spinergys etc., I wouldn't mind getting some unique wheels sometime in the future, just curious.

That's way hot. I'm pretty sure I've seen that bike parked in Philadelphia around Broad and Pine on a few occasions, but at the time I think it had different wheels. So maybe it was a different bike.
