Nice bike. I'm partial to the 6-Pack, which would pick up the white detail in your grey stripes.




Re 21, I'm also partial to 18-19" wheels. IMO, they give better handling and I like a lot of rubber ready to deal with road hazards.

Just had a quick conversation with Hogpro re something on my two year old wheels. I'm back only to say they continue to have fantastic customer service. Whatever you get, you'll be glad to be doing business with Hogpro.
