I have not built much this last year stayed busy with life :crazy2:.( two surgeries, 16 and 18 year old boys)..I did find time to do some rides. this bike i bought didnt seem to fit or ride very well so i gave it a make over this summer, smaller bars, removed laid back seat post. but it still seems off..so i am going to try again :thumbsup: this is when i bought it.
