State Bicycle Co. Matte Black 4

Q4/2018 Updated/ -graded this to the Brother. Transferred the cockpit and cranks. Thanks for the years, buddy Straight-outta-box singlespeeder. The Other bike is rebuilt completely by me part by part, this time I wanted just to get a ready bike and ride it*. Parts are State's stock unless otherwise mentioned. Love this thing. Proper budget speedster. *"BWAHAHAH! Yeah, right!" -Me, May 2016

Current Stage Info:

Got bored with the narrow riser and twitchy handling. Slapped on wide touring bars and a robust basket. Ah, and also flipped the stem. F**k aero, I'm old now. So comfy, so stable.
