The Bike Friday has been sitting unused in the shed. It previously had drops and ergo levers, and while it was nice this way it was less easily packed away for travel. So with an eye towards daily utility and easier travel, I installed some cheap risers, ergons, and NOS suntour friction thumb shifters. I forget how comfortable this bike is when I spend some time away. I'm on the taller side at 6'3", so the long seat mast and stem riser flex a good bit. Takes quite a lot of the road buzz away.
I'd like to fit some fenders and racks for even more daily utility and so (if I ever get time) I can tour on it as well. It's well suited for that.
