    Yea, so I thought I was done. But it lives in my kitchen and everytime I walk through, I admire it and get new ideas. You'll see.

    FIN! ...For now, anyway. I'd like to get some finishing touches: white pedals, maybe shorter crank. But this is how she'll stay for a little bit. When the weather clears up I'll paint the chainguard. And as it turns out the 29" wheel I ordered works better for another project I've been meaning...

    No major updates. Just a picture of some dropouts I cut off a frame before donating it to a friend. I'll be using them to extend my dropouts.
