Current Stage Info:
Welcome to the absolute limit of caliper rim brake fender clearance! Tires still rub when pedalling out of the saddle even after having rolled the fenders, so I'll be sizing down to something slightly smaller :((

watch out for that front fender getting caught on a log or stone

Love the bike...and the car! Looks like a customized '52 Mercury. Do the colors match between the bike and the car?

This car is frequently parked on the street in Bedstuy along my training route, so I see it all the time. After I acquired this MKE, I knew I had to snap a picture. The shade are not quite an exact match (the MKE is a tad darker) but I do love the '50s seafoam color, regardless!

Predictably the sizing is weird... executing a preliminary build to see if it's going out the revolving door LOL

Thanks man! All the parts are arriving by this weekend, so this is my airborne toxic event shut-in project!
