Visited Karfer at college cyclery and loaded up on goodies. New black wheels and brooks saddle. The fat franks I've had for a little while now.

excuse the cruddy lighting, hopefully you get the idea:

Well I guess not much looks different except the million little things that made in not done are done now thanks to Karfer. Rode it to work a few days ago, rides like an old Cadillac with worn out shocks. :D

I appreciate the offer, unfortunately I'm too fat for the hairpin. When I sit on it it deforms and bends all over the place. Plus I really like the fancy brooks seat that's on it now.

Interested in the grips though
