My build is pretty much done. Those of you who followed on Instagram saw it in progress. I deleted the progress shots that showed how messy my garage is.
Anyway, here's the complete bike after my first ride around the block <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-fOQ1WlICpb8/WQ51ObJvjvI/AAAAAAAADas/H03O32NdvpcBhaKc4xUCc-TU1iaAwSXQACLcB/s1600/IMG_1709.JPG> <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-fOQ1WlICpb8/WQ51ObJvjvI/AAAAAAAADas/H03O32NdvpcBhaKc4xUCc-TU1iaAwSXQACLcB/s1600/IMG_1709.JPG> And here's a shot with my Nitto big front rack installed. I'm running vintage XTR V-Brakes, which strike me as providing AMPLE braking power. <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-T2cBzLeKtOY/WQ511kMGFwI/AAAAAAAADa0/zbt5hRiX4II2cjAV6Vhoj5yVyVxjcZNXgCLcB/s1600/IMG_1710.JPG> We're pretty psyched in the Lindsay household. Bill might be the most psyched, but everyone agrees it's a great looking bike.
