i'm usually a fan of A.Danger's stuff, and am definitely jealous of her snagging that infamous Cannondale rat, but i kinda agree with alocalboy on this one.
that setup with the crazy unrealistic Sugino honeycomb bling gear ratio and tiny rack just screams "i ride this around the corner to the cafe" to me. the reason the original Cannondale rat was so iconic around here was because it was ridden into the ground by a dude who liked riding.
current iteration is missing the mark for me. kinda feels neutered and like sealed under glass for safekeeping now
