I’ve finally finished building the X-ray! I was waiting for the Dia Compe brake levers to arrive, a ‘mishap’ happened that delayed the arrival of the levers by 3 weeks.
I also opted to install a crank with a 44 tooth ring and Crank Brothers Egg Beater Chrome pedals.
Front and
rear purple anodized cantilever brakes.
To compliment the bike, I installed a carbon fiber seatpost for a more comfortable ride, and a WTB Rocket V Special Edition seat with yellow accents.
Stay tuned for the review of this bike. Can this bike be my ultimate commuter???
