Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I'm tempted to post some photos of my Sam, but this project has been at the front of my mind until yesterday when I finally finished it.
This bike was passed down to my brother and wasn't in the best shape after all these years. My goal was to bring it back as an all-arounder city/camping/light touring bike.
Parts highlights include Mavic A719/XT wheelset, Nitto Periscopa stem, Soma Moustache Bars, MKS Sneaker Pedals, Schwalbe Delta Cruiser 35c tires, Campy clamp-on downtube shifters, Bontrager Inform saddle, and my favorite - the Gino light mount with Fenix E21 flashlight.
If you look closely, you'll notice I pulled a Sheldon Brown brake routing swap as well.
