Any other IF riders out there?

Hi KayTee - so your IF is a boy, huh? What kind of paint job does he have? What decals?

I can't help but think of mine as a girl, and she is awesome! She's pretty much a peewee as well, and the first time I rode her I couldn't believe the difference between her and my old trusty Lemond. She's sooooo responsive and loves to climb (if she could only get her rider to love climbing as much!). I run Shimano & she is totally naked - no paint. Maybe I should name her Lady Godiva?

Give me a yell if you ever want to venture north to the mountains for a ride!

OK, since many of us here are proudly riding little peewee IF bikes, who's got the smallest? My serial number starts with 37, though when I measure the seat tube it looks like 38. Effective top tube is 47.

KayTee, I totally envy your S&S couplers. That's the one thing that I wish came with my bike. I know it can be retrofitted, but it pains me to think about ever cutting up my bike. Instead, I think I'm going to be on the lookout for something like an older Terry steel bike, to do the S&S thing someday.

Jenxxs - great idea! I think mine starts with 38, too - but I'll have to look when I get home. I can't really remember. I thought about the S&S couplers because I fly with mine at least once a year - but decided against them. Haven't packed this one yet, but hopefully it will be a little easier to pack because it is somewhat smaller.

Have any of you registered yours at the IF website? I have not - again, because I can't remember to bring the serial number with me (no internet at home - so far out in the boonies that we only have dialup and it's not worth it, so all my personal stuff has to be done at the office...shhhhhh!

I went to their website. They make a nice bike!
hmmmmmm

Mine's up on the owner website - if you search for "pink," mine pops up right in the middle of the page - because I was curious to check out the discussion forum. But it hasn't been that interesting. Nothing like this forum!

Not a great pic, however, I just grabbed one from the original eBay listing. I've also since swapped out the crankset for an appropriately pee-wee sized one.

actually, sorry, if you search for pink, it then throws you over to some Google search results, and it's in there.
