Was busy moving stuff around in the garage - stopped to take a break and looked down to see the two of them side by side, sitting in the street ... had to snap a pic.

Gosh, they're getting so big; before you know it, they'll need braces. Nice machines!

I especially like what you've done to the silver one. Looks really nice. Where'd you come up with the black rims?

Fraternal twins - you lucky dog. I have a lonely only child that gets spoiled.
1+ for the black rims on the silver bike - very nice.
Did you get them powder coated, and how much did the whole ordeal (wheel rebuilding, etc) set you back?

Thanks guys. I'll be sure to include the GF's Bonnie Black in the mix the next time a photo-op presents itself. Her bike was in the upstairs garage at the time I took this pic.

The black rims are powdercoated stockers. It was $394 exactly for everything (labor and coating) - done here locally. I had them reuse my stock spokes to save on costs.
