built up! and tastefully so, i might add. i really like the miche track group- with the exception of my terrible habit of crushing the fragile, fragile headset cups, it functions well, looks great, and, most importantly, is from italy. it’s also easier on the wallet than another more well known italian brand (rhymes with frampagnolo). mike is riding this bike right now. i look forward to hearing how it treated him. check out more photos on the flickr.
