There's just something about a beat to fuck rusted steel bike that screams "I'm SEXY" This bike is amazing and has been the background on my computer for some time now.

Nice ride! Love that chainring, where did you get it?

Thanks! It's a black Sugino Messenger 130bcd chainring with the paint removed. I used oven cleaner and sandpaper to remove the paint.

Sorry, I accidentally removed your comment by clicking the wrong link. But to keep it protected, I just keep a layer of metal polish on it. I'm always wrenching on my bikes, so I just keep a bit of polish on it and it's no problem. :-)
