This was a Craigslist score for $1200 in 2013. The previous owner did a great job with the build, and I’m afraid all my changes over the two years or so that I owned it only drew it away from the balance it had, which is likely why I sold it. Below is mostly as-purchased form but all the racks and panniers were my additions.
The above was a test fit for a tour that is depicted perfectly in the following photo – the farmer’s market on Mayne Island.
I wasn’t convinced about the moustache bars at the time, and tried drops .. and they didn’t spark joy either. Then I fitted some Jones loop bars which were pretty good, but never really felt like things were exactly right.
