As we await the RoadUno drop, I was repairing a SimpleOne build I did for
my youngest son some years ago.  He rode it for a while, but then it was
stolen -- it was recovered, but there was a fair amount of damage.  Anyway,
he recently asked me to help him get it back on the road, at minimal cost,
preferably with parts available from my shop.

Here's how it looked on the 2012 Riv Rally East, led by Bobby Birmingham:

Racks, fenders and front brakes were all damaged, bar tape got torn up, one
pedal trashed -- it was a lot.  But a much SIMPLER SimpleOne emerged from
the repair effort (though it's a bit funky, with a color riot on the front
end and a (possibly too classy) Berthoud bag on the rear).  Anyway, here's
the new version, post cheapskate repair:

The "color riot" on the front end, featuring purple anodized Paul Cantis
and some crazy bar tape:

It was fun getting it back on the road!
