Globe Centrum Comp IG8

Notes:

Just got it and building it tonight. Such a cool design. Simple. Fast. Fun. Looking forward to doing some Urban Assault: My translation...riding around the neighborhood and local bike paths with my two kids.

Update: It's built and its fun! Been riding mountains bikes since pre-suspension. "Back in the day", I put Fat Boy slicks on my rigid Ritchey Comp-23 and that thing was a blast on the pavement. The Centrum reminds me of that. So, I immediately start thinking hmmm, not that it is that heavy but what if I made it lighter?...I'm resisting my desire to pimp it out with cool parts.
