Just got my 1st Downtube today. It was white. As I unboxed it my orange showed up. I am in the process of making handguards to keep my hands warm in the snow. Old Clorox bottles work great with.. you know it.. ZIP TIES! Gotta love those things. As I was unboxing the Downtube FS, I was boxing up my Dahon SpeedPro to go to its new owner. It was a sad moment.
I was bummed about the kickstand too but I found the one from my Dahon Gotham City will work. This was one for a recumbent that should work when cut to the right length. I did a quick check and while I haven't put it on yet, I think it should work. I will write later with more impressions. It is snowing out and I can't wait to go for a ride.
Back to the forum in a bit or until I freeze to death.
