It's just my size AND it matches my eyes. Is this my valentines day present? You really shouldn't have. I love those Kashimax Saddles and the 4x looks awesome. You really had ME in mind when you put this chari together didn't you?!

How are you finding the rims? I am looking at getting them for a new build. You say they are delicate? Do they mark and scratch easily ?

Beautiful build!

Submitted by velocipete on 03/23/2011.

yeah, mine are dulled a little bit just from handling and there are scratches on the sides of the rim from tire levers, but they are rock solid and perform great. i definitely recommend them.

Submitted by velocipete on 02/06/2011.

when i was building it up i noticed that it has a reverse-sloped top tube. 110mm spacing, sloped crown, rare silver decals (compared to standard black or white); this frame is worth more than what i payed for it

Submitted by Tempe on 11/14/2010.

those look sick man! I may consider lacing some up.. VeloOrange also has some classy box clincher hoops as well.. Check my SAMSON build.. I went with a campagnolo c record group but have a Nagasawa that is fully njs stamped.. Post pics later..

Submitted by Tempe on 11/13/2010.

Please reconsider a heavy deep dish wheel on a build that should finish classy.. Araya box clincher would suffice or at least some mavic open pro's....
