Added to the collection. Picture taken by previous owner, Jason Boucher. The couplers allowing the bike to break down for travel should be cool.

Sweet and sorta retro-grouchy with the thud bustah!

I like it! I think you'll like the couplers! Now I want all my bikes equipped with them.
took it off the road and the rails to trails to do some single track, so I took the thuddy off the x-cal. figured if I got it, why not use it?
we've got a 100 miler coming up in a week, 95% rails to trails, so figured the thuddy would be a welcome relief...
thanks for peekin' in guys.
