Hey Coomer, this is Brian. What happened to your Gold Weinmann? You've been riding just a black back wheel the two times I've seen you.

Thanks man. I'm about 5'9" or so. Frame might be a little small for me but it definitely works. :-)

Nice bike! I know it's a long shot but if the frame is still around and you want to sell it let me know.
