Who needs brakes?

I got this a little while back as a commuter and have been adding and subtracting parts here and there to make it just right... pretty darn close to perfect now with ~3500 miles into it.
I would say I wasn't terribly satisfied with the quality of parts they use on these bikes or with specialized components in general but once you work out the kinks it makes a sweet ride (maybe I'm just picky spending as much time in the saddle as I do). I will say the Specialized saddle it came with is the best I have ever ridden.
As for the looks of it, the frame geometry isn't that pretty, but it does the business. Love the forest green though.

you're frame is wayy too small i'm guessing since you seat is hanging off it's rails. and fix your rack.. not strong the the supports bent that way.. they should be

straight.

The rack is in the only way it fits on that frame and those brackets are way stronger than they need to be, and I have to ride small frames because I have really long legs and a short torso... Not much I can do about that.

if you have a short torso, then why is you seat so far back? and get the correct size frame for you legs, then adjust seat offset and stem leg for torso fit. i'm not trying to sound like a jerk, i'm a mechanic and fitter for the
past ten years, just trying to help
