What the hell is going on with that brake? that is a crazy ass looking frame.

[T3rd Ferguson]

the brake ruins it, even with that weird placement.

But it's SOOOOO aero.

I finally got my kilo in the mail today, and i realized that the only air pump I have is for a schrader (sp?) valve and the wheels obviously come with presta valves. So I'm wondering what you guys are using for air pumps, or are you just using an adapter?

[Farbin Kaiber]

adapter can be had at a local bike shop for ~$2.

That bike should NOT have risers. Period. It looks ridiculous.

[lowlightbw]

So I picked up the folding Bianchi! It was at an estate sale in Leucadia and the tires were flat. I got home, cleaned it up, pumped up the tires (the tubes are still good) and hopped on! Surprisingly the light on the front of the bike works- it's powered by the front wheel when you connect it. Everything on this bike works. It is AWESOME. I'm sure I look really cool when I ride it. The only thing I think it needs soon is a new chain.

About half put-back together...

Looking good Josh. Weather has been good here, I should take my bike back out. It's been a while.
