I'm leaning more and more toward buying a used bike for parts and building up a BV frame as a project to keep me sane this fall and winter. (this will be S'Knot's first year away from home in college, and I will need a project)
I lean toward the graphite gray frame, but I have fond memories of a white Nishiki bike I had in the 1970's. Maybe I want the cream/white BV?
What I want most of all is the headbadge with the Sutro tower...
I've seen the white BV frame in person. It's nice. If I'm keeping my black Surly as-is, there is no reason for me to choose graphite over white.
Decisions, decisions... (a few months leeway)
