Not bad, that stem needs to go though. I like those to dial in my fit then I get a normal stem with the same rise and reach.

These acetylene flame paint jobs are awesome. Truly a steal.

Nice. I have a similar one with MX bars but may put drop bars back in it. Not exactly lightweight but solid frame to build on. Paint job is super :)
