Yes - it's a harlequin wrap - just can't get enough. The gray tape went a

Och! I meant to put this in my ride report. The views of Pikes Peak are

After I went through and gave this frameset a little more cleaning up, I
noticed there was more powdercoat wear then I originally saw. Nothing

Romel and Anton and Lynne,
So the Take a Look mirror only attaches to a helmet visor, correct? But if
one also buys an adapter then the mirror can attach directly to a helmet?
That's what I gather from the multicolored text in this eBay ad. Please
confirm.
+1 on the Take A Look mirror.
When I had a Bell Muni/Metro helmet, the accessory mirror was great. Take A
Look works on any helmet. Mine is attached to my helmet visor.

Maybe I missed it, but are Clems going to be sold as frame fork, as well
as complete bikes?
I can see several good reasons why RBW might prefer to sell them as
completes only.

Evan,
Like Anton, I don't have the adapter either. However a quick Google search
yielded this post on BikeForums.net about a helmet adapter from the
manufacturer of the Take a Look mirror. I don't know if it's the same
adapter that the Ebay seller you mentioned is selling.
Rubbing rubbery sound makes me think:
1.Got enough clearance around all stays?
2. Under fenders?
3. Brake pads not rubbing rims?
4. Is it a long, sustained sound or a quick, short sound? Once I had a tire
where the little new tire whiskers hit the brake pads every time they went
around. But

Have you tried increasing the PSI and seeing if the noise goes away? I usually
