Waterford supplied the decals. When I brought it up, he said "You know, we
probably still have some of those around here somewhere." Was happy to help
them find a use for those old decals before they closed up shop.

A very beautiful bike that I can imagine must be a joy to ride. The blue is 
stunning! May it provide many years of blissful riding!

 You might want to get some helicopter tape to protect the finish:

Kim, thanks for the tip about the helicopter tape, I hadn't thought about
that. Should probably do what I can to protect this thing.

Michael, the stem is a Soma Sutro. It's 180mm, so in-between standard and
Technomic. I think they look good, the height is right for this sort of
bike (for me anyway), and they're relatively cheap at around $50.

may i ask what that stem is? i don't see the nitto branding and it also 
seems to not have nitto hardware on the backside of the clamp. but the 
finish looks to be nitto like in quality. 

bike looks gorgeous and proportions look great too. looks like a bike that
