Hi ladies,
I got a new commuter bike and named her Tapioca. Unfortunately, I cannot put studded tires on her, but I rode her on slick roads all week - to my endless entertainment. I did buy some knobby tires for her, and she needs fenders. Here is a link to the album (hopefully): http://picasaweb.google.com/ginnysch...eat=directlink She is a felt curbside. I think she is meant for the urban hipsters (which I so am not), but she is light and sturdy, and super fun to ride. She is either single speed or fixie with a flip flop hub. I don't think I will ever flip the hub and will only ride single speed. Now, I can begin saving for my real dream bike: a Luna *drool*

I think it's a wrench for removing the wheels.
