Looks good, I'm guessing it is a small? Not just 'smaller'. What brakes did you go for? I'm sure you wrote it down somewhere but, y'know...
pastry_bot-
Yeah it's a Small. I went for Tektro 720s. They are really fucking squeaky. I've tried to toe-in the pads so I'm hoping it will reduce when the anodizing wears off the braking surface.
The first ride out I was on about 70psi. Shit was a bit harsh. I've gone down to 55 and it's a lot more squishy and fun. Is that right? Or am I courting punctures with these? (conti speed kings)

Not a great picture, but you get the idea. I had quite a tough time sorting the rear cable hanger. @amey generously gave me a seatbolt hanger but the one-clamp was too small and the swish surly one is too long for small pomps. Had to go with the unsightly integrated seatclamp.
It's really fun.
