Thank you for the compliment. I, too, happen to like the way it turned out.

Just about time to test ride the Torpado. Figured I would do so a week ago but Mother Natures played an end of the winter joke and dumped a ton of snow on Thunder Bay, coupled with sub-zero temperatures on Thunder Bay and surrounding area. In fact, I spent today thawing out the water pump, water lines and taps at the lake cottage. Thank goodness the hot water tank did not freeze solid. I am, at home now and baffed!

And, guess what, I just got another Torpado. Like I need another Torpado. Gonna harvest this one for the component group and then find a new home for the frame, fork head set and bottom bracket. The quick release paint and art has, pretty much, released but the frame, chrome and all is in good shape. Seat post and stem are both moving freely...
