05.04.11 -- Jeremy wanted a bike for NYC that was clean, reliable, and as theft-proof as possible. He also wanted to be able to grab some gear and go for a weekend getaway.

Features:
- Body-specific sizing
- Handmade dropouts for disc brake and rack
- Black powder coat
- Brown lug lining
- Shimano Alfine 8 speed internal hub with Shimano Alfine chain tensioner
- Sugino 3 speed cranks
- Avid disc brakes
- Nitto Dynamic quill stem
- Nitto mustache bar
- JTek bar end shifters (US made)
- Brooks B17 leather saddle
- Brooks leather bar wrap
- Modified PDW platform rack to fit a Kryptonite NY Fahgettaboudit U lock (yeah, that hunker has up to $4,500 of theft protection)
- Pitlock theft-proof bolts for front and rear wheels, disc brakes, and seat post
- Theft-deterrent Torx bolts for everything not Pitlock

Jeremy saw his bike for the first time at the New Amsterdam Bike Show. Soon after, he went on a looong test ride. The report back is that it rocks. He's already accessorizing with moss-colored Brooks roll-up panniers, a leather frame bag, and a Jambox to put in the frame bag, which makes his bike a wireless mobile boombox. Sweet.

For those of you in the Boston area, Jeremy is graciously letting us show off his bike at the New England Bike Expo this weekend.
