what an honorable build celebrating just how great of a bike one can create when extracting the very most out of every dollar. no hype, just timeless beauty that leaves as much a smile on our face as the dollars left in our pocket.
really really enjoy this. classic reliable tire choice & seeing it fill in the frameset clearances so greatly blending soft colors to emulate a lustworthy relaxing Sunday cruiser. wheelset where comfort/strength/reliability matches the tire cushioning & relaxed elegance of those handlebars polishing all that one can. all day riding gear ratio w/ perfect skid patch combination that one can hop onto w/ any shoes to match the days events. simple saddle utilizing classic design flow atop a stand-out seat post that became an instant classic just like the Steamroller itself. & the little touches acting like they're batting their eyelashes for those that can appreciate the love put out here; things like the seat post collar, tire script aligned w/ valves & topped off in white caps, angle of grips slogan, balance of cockpit height comfort w/ aggressive enough fitment.
damn man, you've done so very well. to bring it past perfect, I'd recommend biting the bullet for Toshi double straps that'll last forever, maybe a vintage campy aero water bottle or Wabi bottle mount?, & certainly polish out all insignia's on that Miche post besides the one used for your insertion height
