New Mixte on the Block

August 25th, 2011

This mixte has moved into my neighborhood. I’m loving all the chrome, the VO double-hammered fenders in particular, and the stitched leather handgrips. I’m definitely doing that next time I re-wrap my bars.

The cloth tape protection is a nice touch!

I’m tempted to leave a note saying this bike is too sexy to spend the night outside. We’ve had a lot of bike thefts recently. My husband commented that he hopes it’s not another of those “boyfriend builds his girlfriend the perfect bike but she doesn’t fully appreciate the effort” stories. Hmmmm.
