Road trip!

Taking the Haro V3 to test out the new gears to Maryland for the big Thanksgiving weekend. It will be nice to be able to shift on some of those hills! Also up, a nice big bottle of this. And probably some of this. Good times ahead, happy Thanksgiving and safe travels!

Gears...finally!

Here is the latest version of the Haro V3. Looks like the xtracycle conversion will have to wait, but for now, this will be the commuter set up. Here are the parts:

-2003 Haro V3 frame
-Sram X9 rear derailleur
-Shimano LX front derailleur
-Sram X7 shifters
-Avid BB7 brakes
-Avid SD7 brake levers
-Easton EA50 handlebars
-Bontrager stem
-Salsa rigid fork (From an Ala Carte)
-Sun Ringle Singletrack wheelset
-Truvativ Fire X mountain crankset with GXP BB.
-Original Haro seatpost
-Shimano clip/platform pedals
-Maxxis Crossmark 26x2.1 tires

I still need to fine tune the shifting a little, but for the most part it is ready for commuting duty. After the shifting is all set, the next thing to order will be some Schwalbe Big Apples! Here's a few pictures:
