problem solvers has something that lets one lever control both brakes

Right company, wrong part. It works great, but there's at least one dual-cable brake lever out there that duplicates the effect for much less $$$.

This is the one for two levers into one brake...:

I buy a new pair of blackyellow tire, a new lugged fork.

NDS fail!

First SS of the new year, it was a fixed conversion but this wheelset is more commuter friendly. Other commuter modifications were made as well.

Are those slicks? My monitor is too small. What brand and size are they?

Thanks!

Not slick, but more of a straight tread pattern (definitely not knobby) 700x37 Innova commuter tires, thick and heavy but no puncture flats to date (been using this same set for over a year)

Thank you. I am running some Schwalbe Kojaks that are labeled 700x35 but they barely measue 32mm. They seem to be a good tire, but I'm on the lookout for a true 35-37mm full slick. The search continues. ;-)

2 week old build. Still working the bugs out, saddle has to go but its doing fine on the commute.

Nice pomp.

Here's my towel rack. Previous owner broke off the derailleur hanger so I developed this weaponized colour scheme as revenge. Shame, 'cuz it's a pretty nice 501 frame.

dammit I forgot it every time !!!

nice but how to grab the bar corner...

Oh I don't ride it. I'm a horse.

It's ok, I often forget how to use my eyes too.

You're the cutest boy horse I've ever seen.

Judging by your location, can I assume this is on 1A headed north?

Exactly

Never posted it but built this after my Langster was stolen 4 months ago. Still to go: a good front wheel, a better saddle, and probably a shorter stem

Well I haven't managed to ride out that way in awhile because of the cold, but I'll be keeping an eye out for your bikes!

Excuse to ***** out pictures? Yes.

^^^^ very cool. Does everybody in the street turn his head to look at your bike?

No, because I never ride it on the street

But it's been a hit at the track.

Damn, dude. Can you believe you started on a 50cm Kilo TT and now you're at a 59cm Dolan?

Nice friggin' bike.
