Please forgive the filth, the non matching silver spacers and black stem, and whatever else you may find to criticize. It is a fun bike to ride on the street, although I find myself sometimes wishing it had more of a road-ish geometry on longer rides. The zero-setback seatpost and the lack of rail length on the Brooks makes it impossible for me to have the seat back far enough. Still, I'm keeping it in hopes of learning to ride track over the winter in London (Forest City). Changes I am hoping to make for comfortable street riding are a nice classy setback post, a slightly longer polished stem, 700 x 25 Panaracer Paselas, and a front brake. Yes!
EDIT: changed the bars, stem, and put some 700 x 25 tires on
