Assembled this one over the winter; the chrome cheered me up in the cold months, but now when I see it outside, it is decidedly too damn shiny. Be happy this photo was taken on an overcast day.
So, an old timey scalloped paint job is in the works, as are brakes, and a some sort of rack...
smooth.

Got it set up very comfortably, painted it black (though by the time I photographed it, it was all scuffed up), and made a leather case for my u-lock.
Now working on a set of panniers.
