I know, I'm very happy with my garage. Always a requirement for Matti
I'd love to have a garage! But being single, making an average wage, and living in Copenhagen, I don't expect to ever have one.
Hence bikes parked in the living room of my 3rd. storey flat-share, and using a corner of my room as a workshop.



 
How do you like those grips? I bought a few pair but haven't installed them on anything just yet

They are used but very very nice. Shadow conspiracy brand - they were $2 at a swap. :)

Knicked the green tires from the free to me fixie. Put them on my old Cannondale. It's just an old cad2 but I paid forty bucks for it like 12yrs ago and converted it to a street hybrid with 38c tires, upright handlebars and a suspension seat post. Sticker bombed it a little last year. It's my "normal" bike so I had to personalize it somewhat. Threw the old Bontrager tires on the white fixie, makes more sense for the flip-flop wheel to have a unidirectional tire and really I'll probably pass this bike along. Besides why do I need a fixie? Rode the C2 all afternoon...

GC.
 
Shakedown ride on the new gravel unit. Making slight tweaks to the seat and bars as I went. Added cages, Specialized seat, Shimano SPD pedals, ano top cap, and swapped a bunch of hardware for stainless

I might wind up swapping the cranks out for some Shimano units or the hollow tech ones on the shelf
 
Ever do a build thread on your Cannondale ? Here is the H300 I pickled up from a LBS back room...

I have been riding it lately. Pretty dialed in for me except on account of it being a small frame I can't sit as upright as I'd like and my shoulders and neck suffer for it. I have some of those handlebar extensions... How do you like them?
