If you search for "Brooks Saddles" you should be able to find them stateside as well.

I would have to agree- that's a nice saddle ,and that leather seat ought to be real comfortable

It's about who gets to decide: how much energy we will have... where that energy will come from... what it will cost... It's about simulations, scenarios and monsters conjured up by computer models that should never be used to chart government policy -- especially on matters that will profoundly affect our livelihoods, living standards, life spans and dreams of a better future.

I ordered a B67 saddle in black from a bike shop in Portland, Oregon. Everyone else was out of stock for at least 2 weeks for that particular model. It was expensive, but with a bad back now and the need to ride upright, it should be well worth it in the long run.

Yep, I made the tank from scrap I had laying around and a filler cap & weld in bung that I ordered from Jegs for $30.

I bought a tank sealer kit from KBS Coatings, so its definitely sealed up. I have enough sealer to do about 10-15 tanks now. The interior of the tank is coated nicely. Not sure what the stuff is, but it turned out awesoem and wasnt too hard to apply.

Datz--get some gear! Helmet/gloves/jacket armor. Most MC accidents happen at around 35mph at intersections. You're easily going to be in that range on the new Gary Fisher, so be careful!

oh absolutely. I'll be wearing a helmet at least. Looking into some gloves too.

I dont think I'll be running at full speed around town. Probably just putting around at 25mph as usual. The higher speeds will be reserved for downhill. I ride slowly in the bike lanes and ride very defensively as you have to do on a bicycle. The only time I take a full lane is to do a left turn at a light to get into the bike lane again.

Legally, I'm only allowed to run 20mph on this bike, since its still technically a bicycle, so I dont want to get any tickets. Wink
