This is my every day bike. This is how I get to work, see friends, go shopping for groceries, explore the city, and anything I need to do to sustain myself. Built with a friend from scratch as my first bike 2 years ago, it's been what's taken me to a lot of places, and has taught me a lot.

Current Stage Info:
Trying out a few things, just to make sure everything fits & feels good; different bars, levers & tires will come soon, as well as fenders (chopped to fit), and a dynamo hub, front rack, and a decaleur.
Hoping it all works out!

How have the 32 paselas worked out on this frame? Any rubbing?

They've been great! I actually swapped to 28s to be able to mount some fenders, which has been super rad. I don't remember them rubbing at all, but I think the only reason they fit was because the Aileron rims are so wide.

Kilo's really have clearance for 32s? i thought they only went up 28s.

Haha, the Kilo is definitely, 100% maxed out w/ the 32s. I think the rims (25mm wide) are to thank for the tires fitting at all; they don't inflate quite as high with the wider rim, so it just barley makes them fit.
