>>2028319So this is the OG paint job -- this is the 2014 model, which I think was the last year they ran V-brakes. They brought back the old school decal for that run along with the head badge. I dig it.
And the parts, lol. The only thing I bought new for this bike is the Tubus Front Rack, the Velo Orange Noveau Randonneur Handlebars, the pedals, brake pads, cables, and the bar tape. I tried to be frugal about where I bought stuff from, did my own maintenance as well. The Brooks saddle and rear rack came with it for that $250 price point.
I think, including the original price point, I've spent... maybe $600 on this bike total? Not bad, IMO, for a touring bike.
