That's a beautiful bike, and an even more beautiful gesture from your BF! Very sweet!!!I hope you enjoy riding it as much as I enjoyed oggling over it.

Gorgeous bike! I'm a bit partial as my Bike Friday is white with the same color blue handlebar tape as yours!
Enjoy your new, beautiful ride! What a wonderful boyfriend you have!

As the weather is not so great over here at the moment (not too warm and rain ) and we have a busy week I put her on the rolers last night in my work shirt and a pair of gym shorts that i pulled out quickly. I'll get a real ride on Sunday. I do think she will be getting a new saddle but we will see how sunday goes.

BF does say that as it's a 9 speed the parts may be a bit newer than the frame but the parts will not die for ages as camp parts live for ever I just have to make sure not to crash her and she will last me a long time. The fork is not the original, it's alu, but we also have to original as well. I got three forks with it (got a longer alu as well)
