I thought I'd put up some pics of the newest additions to the Black Plague. I ditched the 2 pound goose neck stem in favor of a zero-degree Zoom with a removable face plate. Although I love my Soma pursuit bars, they keep me pretty low and streamlined for around-town riding, so I decided to take advantage of the quick change potential of my new stem and get myself a set of risers. I went down to the swapmeet this morning and scored brand new black Mesa risers for 3 bucks. Well, actually $3.22, but the nice old guy at the booth said he'd cut me a deal- lucky me! I cut them down to 19 3/4" with my trusty Bosch grinder. I put on some red Oury grips that I got at Art's, and I think the whole setup looks pretty sick. Now all I need is a straight fork and better balance and i can do bar spins.
