A fitting (and much more logical) replacement to my Yamaguchi. True Temper brothers separated by only a few years and a few thousand dollars. Effective top tube is more like 55.5/56. Fits great and rides smooth. Gonna keep this one low key and just enjoy it; rust, paint chips and all.

did you replace the stock headset? I've heard they're less than great. Bike looks great as usually btw
