More Info:
My grandfather died at the age of 95(!), and left me some money. I used part of it to finally get a decent bike. In 2011, Superb in Boston, MA did the original build from parts I picked out. Original build is the photo with blue tape on the bullhorns. I have since swapped a number of things out. It is pictured in present day format. I love this ride, but it is a bittersweet experience considering how I ended up with it. Thank you, Grandpa! I think of you when ever I ride!

you gotta go clipless man. is your frame anodized black then painted or the black is paint as well?

Ridden clipless before, and it's great for road riding, but I ride the Histogram around the city. Like being able to wear my "normal" shoes for that purpose. Frame is factory painted aluminum.

Don't get Hold Fasts, get actual foot retention. But other than that, this is a nice build. And sorry to hear about your grandfather.

I'm not a big fan of clipless. Thus, it's either clips (horrific), Power Grips, or Hold Fasts. I've tried all but one of them, and so far Power Grips are my fav, but I've heard many a good things about Hold Fasts. And thanks for the kinds words re grandfather.

2+ years later, and Holdfasts are best foot retention for city riding I've ever used. Will never look back.
