Forgot I had this bike, swapped cranks, forks and pedals around with other bikes in the stable.
Holy crap it's loud, but starting to rust in nicely.

Updated the Kilo WT with some Plant Bike lights. It's now all conditions capable. I'm now running it as SS with 48 x 21 and the rear brake re-installed. The 21T cog remains on the flip side of the hub.

The day I picked her up and the day my life changed:
Took the reflectors, pedals and rear brakes off. Put some Look Keo Classics on, a Garneau bag, steel (cheap) cage and some lights..
This is my main ride.
State Bicycle Co Zombie Stomper - 52
Carbon fiber fork
FSA full orbit headset
FSA BB
Bullhorn bars
48/16 fixed
Look Keo Classic pedalas
Lights and some other small goodies.
Bought this one as I am awaiting the UNDEFEATED to be available... that build will be fun!

Yeah ive done my own decals before, it is super easy. If you have any graphic designer friends just have them redo the art, then send the vector file to a sign shop with vinyl cutter. You then just squeegee them on. Im not sure what your shops would charge to redo the art, but to get the decals made is only 15-25$. If you have a hard time finding a designer or your shops cost too much just message me. Heres how the decals I made my came out.

i talked to a lbs (local banner shop) about making some decals a while ago but i had the artwork done (studying graphic design, did it myself). iirc there was a $20 minimum so i was just gonna get multiple made and sell the rest.

No, no, no. He should just get a decal of his gtb on his gtb.
