TRADITIONAL Behrens Viscount

[Fv2]

Just an old parts bike I found at the old Ann Arbor swap meet years ago.
After sitting outside nearly 6 years, I got it back on the road.... Trail in this case.

It took some time to get the tires to stop rubbing the fenders, but after that it's now one of the smoothest riding bikes I have.

The cliff pictures remind me of that time during build off 11, when I put rELEVENt setback on the edge of the Grand Canyon.

Well done my friend! It's ratty, with those red walls and red grips adding a dash of class and flair. And that's okay.

PS Glad you chose this saddle.

Thanks.
Vacation was great. A lot of miles over 2 months, but saw a lot.
