I did have some pitfalls though... Tried to string up the chain... ONE link short... And while rebuilding the front wheel had three stripped out nipples. The stem was in fact a little... Out of whack. I really had to crank down on the pinch bolt and it still moved a hair during my first ride...
Alright all... I know I skipped some steps (never said I was a photo-journalist) but I took her out for a spin today!

Just a heads up, don't plan on picking any up here in Chicago! It is illegal to sell spray paint in the city limits! You can go to any suburb of Chicago and pick some up however!

Thanks for the heads-up LTJ... I had noticed that... I haven't decided on bars yet, but when I do I'll keep that in mind. Possibly spreading it and shimming would take care of it. Time will tell!

I received another goodie!!! Once again, not original equipment, but I REALLY like the design of this stem...
I plan on polishing it up and painting the recessed bits with the Ivory 1shot!
