From Osaka with love. Extremely fortuitous find for me. Mint frame, equipped with all of the swag listed above (sans wheels and pedals) for a mere 700 shipped (Japan-->Hawaii). All the subtle elegance of its original Japanese components, coupled with the almost obtrusive vividness of it's American add-on's (Deep V's / Phils). Couldn't be happier with the outcome. Rides like silk, contemporary art while parked.
*note* HP stands for High Polished. My ego wouldn't allow me to omit that gleaming, mirror-like byproduct of hours spent de-anodizing and elbow-greasing :)
