Beautiful!
Did you know 250,000 bicycles are stolen a year? I looked that up just to scare you.

Thanks! I'll be sure to use the dummy pedal on it if it does!

Beautiful bike! Great colors, I'm very jealous. Especially since it weights about 1/2 of what my shitheap steel 70s road bike weights! Mind me asking the total cost?
(however, living in SF, I can only ride bikes I don't care about being stolen).

If this bike gets stolen I think I might have an emotional breakdown...

I honestly don't know how much it costs because costs kept adding on top of other costs and I just lost count. I think $1700 is a safe guess.

That's why I'd be too scared to go through all of the hardship and dedication of building such a beautiful, perfect-for-me custom bike like that.

Well this is not commuting bike, it's like a Ferrari, you only take it out for drives on nice days and you rarely leave it alone.

Lol, I hate that. I redid the suspension on my motorcycle, which was a real hodge-podge job. When somebody asked me how much it cost, I just shrugged. Half the cost was getting the right tools to do the job!

17.5 pounds?? O.o thats 4 pounds less then my single speed..granted, its a factory built single speed, but still O.o also, just find a lock with a good theft insurance price, if they have one that goes high enough for your bike :) then buy another so you can lock both wheels to frame, and the frame/a tire to..a solid object, lol
