This better be a cross bike, mountain bike, folder or fixed gear. Gotta mix things up a little.

New shoes are included so you guys are at least partially right. And yes, the shoes are black, red, and white. Hopefully have the first pictures tomorrow.

Match those with a red plaid jacket and hat with attached earflaps, and you're ready for some Wisconsin bow hunting

I've got one of those, but you CF riders wouldn't care for it.
