Brooks Honey B-17 Special and New Rim

I got my saddle and rim in the mail today; joining the herds of hipsters riding Brooks I suppose. I care not what people think, I think its a piece of art and I love the idea of keeping it with me through my entire bike-riding life, it aging with me. I cannot wait to get out there and start wearing it in.

My new rim was in the same box, nothing exciting though just a $12, 32-hole, 27 inch aluminum deal. My goal tomorrow is to find some spokes that will fit both it and my hub and get my new wheel laced up!

    I’m glad that the artistic qualities of your arse are finally reflected in your arse carrying machanism. It deserves that much.
