I thought I would share some snappies of an ongoing non-Rivendell cycle project (but built with quite a few Rivendell-sourced parts). I call it a "Town Bike"--it's a cheap-and-cheerful, no-name aluminum touring frame with Surly forks, with nice parts and really nice wheels and tires.
http://goo.gl/pVsRy The photos will remind me of what the bike looked like before I do what I'm going to do to it, i.e., expose it to North Yorkshire roads most days for the rest of its life. Its color is just about to go from glorious green to a gorgeous, gritty gray with stunning white, salty accents. The interesting bits, to me, are the green saddle, 40-spoke Phil hubs, and the Terracycle (terracycle.com) light mount--I will be installing more of those soon. I will be zipping baskets to both racks, and the Terracycle mounts solve the problem of my basket load obscuring my lights.
