A GuestI have to be honest and say that I purchased this from my LBS, and I was very concerned about the bling factor associated with this bike as it seemed a little bit flashy for my taste.
I swapped out the seat post for a black Thomson with a Brooks Cambium saddle and blacked out the headset and installed a Jeff Jones H-Bar to tame the looks down.
Bottom line is that this has become my favorite bike to ride. It rolls so much easier than I thought it would with the big tires, and the gum walls give it a subtle retro look. The disc brakes and upgraded Shimano group are awesome; I won't be competing in the Iditarod so I am not worried about my brake lines freezing.
My only fear now is what type of limited edition they will roll out next year!
