Still learning
Glad you held onto your Tomii!
Surprised your daughter doesn't want the gorgeous Belleville.

I'm not usually into the townie cruisers, but this is amazing. Well thought out build and love the retro Trek decals!

Wish you were farther away, so I wouldn't be so tempted! This is a steal, just not the bike I need right now. If my girlfriend actually used any of the bikes I've built her I would snap this up.

If it were the right bike, I'd come get it - I'm north of Columbus. Unfortunately, a road bike is higher on the list.
GLWS - that's a well thought out interpretation of a casual bike.

My daughter attends Denison University and is doing research at Ohio State this summer.
So I would definitely deliver. If you change your plans, let me know. I could make you a "can't refuse" deal
Peace,
Scott

Nice bike also.

I have a 64 cm Trek Belleville (not nearly as beautiful as the one above) and it appears that I've stripped the right rear hub attachment screw that connects to the rear wheel to the frame. Is there any cure short of replacing the rear hub and/or the entire rear wheel? I'm a tall, heavy fella' and my problem is that I constantly pull the wheel out of alignment when I'm pedaling hard. I was relying on heavily tightening the right screw, but that clearly hasn't worked out.
Suggestions?
Brian
P.S. If I sell it off for parts, how much should I ask for it if the only functional problems are the aforementioned stripped screw and a rear light that doesn't work?
