September 2023 update:

 

This is still the bike I've ridden the most. I've used it on about 2/3rds of my daily commutes for 3 years of working here at Riv. I've taken it on road trips, tours, grocery runs, errands where I could've just walked, trail rides, and etc.

 

Here it is in its current state with these notable parts:

 

Nitto RBW51 custom bent with longer struts and a light mount to mount a B&M dyno light using cable clamps, pieces of rubber, and spare spacers/bolts. 

 

Silver 42/26 Double

 

Nitto Wavie Bars

 

Edelux light 

 

Velocity Quill's to a black - white industries mi5 rear and a kasai front dynamo

 

Lots of Blue Lug swag and stickers

 April or something 2020

 

This is the bike I ride the most. Commuting, trail riding, market runs, pizza pick-up, etc. I've swapped the tires, bars, and racks numerous times and this is what I've settled on (for now).  The ride is so smooth.
