The light action of the nearly weightless Rock Shox SID air fork, tuned the opposite of off road with fastest rebound and low negative pressure, allow very high speeds and super quick acceleration, especially while cornering. Those German Continental Avenue tires are remarkably sticky especially considering their long wear; 1.75�? wide at the rear, 1.3�? at the front. Italian Vuelta brakes stop the exotic Rolf Urraco wheels with the sealed bearing hubs.

The fine drivetrain features a Sram hollow pin slotted plate chain, a super light Sram 9 speed cogset with the sweet clear orange spacers which really glow since the hub body inside was painted white, and the ultra drag-race totally American Precision Billet derailleur. Yow!

This is how you ride the street.

Hells yea

I totally love this shit, I rode to the coast last summer on a bike set up very similar to this. I mean, it's not like this bike is really an eye catcher, but I can tell you've but some thought into building it up.

Perform

Yes, the looks of a bike are not very important to me. High performance is. Form follows function, eh?
