Distinguishing features
Very good condition, only used on nice days. Was custom built for me by Comrade Cycles on Chicago and Damen. Gold frame with gold bar tape and black/silver accents over all. Has full black fenders (front and back), black back panier rack, bull horn handle bars with black mounted break extensions, hand-built wheels with manufacturer's sticker still attached (I believe Velocity?) with silver drum breaks, 3 speed internal hub, LOTS of paint scuffs and chips, many of which have been touched up with almost-matching nail polish and gold sharpie, especially along the top bars and near the back wheels. Handlebar tape is gold and very worn in, cut up in spots and repaired with electrical tape (on the left side). Planet Bike women's ergonomic bike seat in silver and black. Monkey Electric LED bike light mounted to back wheel hub.
