Yeah that stem would suck.
The tire will not fit so that is why it is not inflated.
The fork is so tight that it will take 19mm tires or 22 mm depending on brand.
Aero rims are out for this fork.
Thanks for the words!

My cuzin who had my Somec had these bars on it. I took them when I got back the Somec.
I will take the tape off later to reveal the answer. I think Profile bars but who knows for sure.

I appologize, I ride my bike 5 days a week for a living, and to get everywhere I ever need to go. That and I have a life outside of bikes as well.

my physical/social self apologises to you about my internet self, he's been slacking lately.

But yea... the Keirin brake is a little odd, but the frame is actually pretty sweet. The non-matching gold kinda puts me off though.
Sorry for acting rude again though. No offense meant

^^^ it isn't that bad in lubbock, because it's all flat (VERY) and traffic is relatively low... you just can't go too fast and always allow plenty of room to stop
