Old pic, but here's the old fashioned bike I had a lot of fun riding today, it still looks the same, still handles like a magic carpet. I like my modern bikes too, but when I ride this one I like how it forces me to be deliberate about shift timing and cadence.
>>1396786Nice. Personally I'd suggest reconsidering panniers, they're fine for off road use as long as you've got a securing mounting system and much more versatile if you want to run errands along your commute since they can accept a much wider range of objects and shapes.
>>1394888Amazing picture as always. I think this is the first time we've seen with pads strapped to your top tube, makes sense.
