Here's my new whip. Took me 8 months to build because I am poor. I hate people that name their bikes but I went ahead and named mine anyway. Her name is Alicia (with the Spanish lisp), named after Alicia Alarcón in the Grand Hotel TV series. My wife can't get mad that I'm riding Alicia, She's just a bike.

isn't your bike always supposed to be worth more than your car. What do drive?

Haha, I guess. Can't wait to see what my bike looks like around summertime when I buy a new car. I drive a 1991 Honda Accord.
By the way, frame and wheels are on the way then I can assemble the bike. Stay tuned for pics!

Thanks! And I forgot to have it weighed at the shop. I tried standing it on it's back wheel at home but who knows how accurate that was. It looks like it is just over 19 lbs. The stock Wabi is just under 19 lbs, but my wheelset is heavier.
