Excuse the quality of the pic.
Daily/commuter build.
Picked this up locally, stickers tell me it's an Onza Billy Comp. Tange Prestige tubing, Deore DX everywhere, besides seatpost which is XT. It's currently a 1x7 setup, using the front derailleur as a chain guide until I get something else, maybe a Paul chainkeeper.
The owner bought the Conti's this spring, so they're still in great shape. He also threw on some new Kool Stop pads, but did not bother setting them up properly as he was already riding his new bike. I have a fork mounted cable stop/guide coming, but I'm debating swapping to some v-brakes, possible mini-v brakes.
When I got the bike I threw on the Flite saddle, but that still needs to be adjusted. I also put on some Eclat plastic flat pedals, but they're very worn, so I might grab something else. besides that I'm going to change the stem to something longer and lower as I feel very upright on this bike.
