New to NYC from London I bought this as a bog standard version from a work colleague who was leaving the country. He had hardly used it, less than 100 miles and sold it to me for 0. I've upgraded the bars, stem, brakes (Shimano Dura-Ace). I had a set of WH-550's but the rear doesn't fit due to spacing issues. I am currently looking for a nice rear wheel with a flip/flop hub, possibly a Velocity Deep V. It's my first single speed which I use for commuting to and from work in Manhattan (15 mile round trip) I really love this bike!!!
