That bike is just so perfectly of it’s time. Well done.

Me neither, but sometimes you just have to go with what's available!
I wanted a silver hub to match the rear one I already had, but they were out of stock, so since the rims were blue I thought I'd go red, white and blue. One day the forks might get painted, but for now I just try my best to ride the wheels off the bloody thing!
