here's my bikesdirect frame all built up, basically took my other kilo and switched everything over, with new bars and stem. the other frame was too big, this is a 57 and i'm 6'3" with a 33" inseam. I've got a super weird build, really short torso, hence the longish seatpost but seat all the way up and mini stem, oh well. it rides nice though, nothing fancy
one thing, i think my chainline's off a bit, i need to fix that.

I feel like that Raleigh deserves some leather or cork grips. Absolutely gorgeous nonetheless.

those tires are badass. i was cleaning out my apartment today, and snagged a decent picture. I've updated a few little things.
