didn't do jack with the paint... i'm just too lazy to sand, paint, repeat. so, i'm writing quotes on the frame with a paint pen as they come to mind. left the SIS shifters on the down tube, just for lack of something better to dress the shift studs with and it's a fun noise maker CLICK-CLICK! my first ride on a fixed-gear. it is quite fun to learn new techniques involved. again, thanx to Rodney for scavenging the bike (see I'm Stealing the Towels for the before pictures) and Tim, Mimi & Andy at Yellow Jersey for advice, wisdom, lockring spanners, et cetera.
