VERY nice lookin ride Darryl - i see you found yoru cog. gooc choice. looks like a lot of fun - also looks like you need a brake cable - ive never seen a lever on a seatpost, hows that work?

Thanks Brad. The brake cable is actually on the left side, which you can't see, but the braking system still works. The only problem people will probably come across is just finding the right size brake lever to fit anywhere on your bike. For me, i chose to put it onto my seatpost just in case the cops pull me over and run a bike check on me! Basically the brakes work, but i don't use them

understand completely now! haha. must be one short cable!

yeah it is lol

I got some aluminum rollers, woohoo!!! $30 bucks on craigslist

They're not as hard to use as people make it seem on some youtube videos I've seen, haha. Tonight was my first time being on rollers. Definitely good for cardio and to help with balance

hahah. i was looking at those. were those kritlers?

Nitto B125 handlebars and Origin-8 track grips.

I'm already starting to hate the track grips and I'm probably going to buy some tape soon.
