Bike was a street rider in Montreal and the original owner heard creaking coming from a crack in the downtube. The frame made its way to Minneapolis where I traded someone some beer and cigarettes for it. I sat on it for over five years, then met a friend in San Francisco who could repair it for me - Andrew @ Butchertown Cycleworks. Downtube is Columbus Zona in an aerofoil shape that closely resembles the original downtube. Have over 1k miles on it kicking around town. It's still a bit crooked.

Absolutely love this bike, also that you didn't just chunk it when it was damaged and instead decided to have it repaired. What kind of pump is that btw???

Thank you! It's not really a special frame but was fun to keep it running on the cheap. The pump is a Zefal HPX that was a freebie along with something else I bought.
