Damn that's a beauty (the bike. The cat that looks like it wants to piss on the bike is just ok. ) Do you ride with the seat that much higher than the bars?

Haven't ridden it yet...just got it today and it's rainy and gross. I'll take a picture after I've adjusted some more and take a picture of the old bike, as well.

Way back I used to ride everywhere.. I ended up getting a front fork for a much bigger frame and making a spacer for the top bearing locknut so my bars could be up higher.. Leaning so far forward made my hands go numb after a while. I made a solid bar aluminium seatpost cause the hollow ones kept bending.. And I meant no disrespect to your cat.

Forgive my ignorance and lack of desire to search, but is that bike made in that store? If so does it smell like glue in there?

Okay nevermind! Still a very nice ride!
