    Bike Makeover

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Hey ladies! I just did a "makeover" on my road bike. I am SO excited about it, but I also know that not many people appreciate it quite they way that you would! I will post before and after, but there are some closer ones on my blog.

    Before AND after!

    I took them with my camera phone : http://kacietri-ing.blogspot.com/201...-makeover.html


    Anyone else have bike makeovers?!? It's amazing how a little pick me up can make an old bike feel new again!

    Slow and steady (like a train!)

    Oh grand, love the spring bike makeover.

    So far, Sky has new leather brooks handlebar tape and the new Pearl Saddle from Rivet. Also going to go with the Grand Bois tires for our upcoming 104 mile tour on dirt roads.

    Fancy! Nothing new to share, yet. She needs new tires and bar tape soon, though...
    At least I don't leave slime trails.
