So, the TristoBike has a small issue with the beer tray and tail light.  Easily fixed.  But should it be fixed?  I can pretty easily parlay this into a new piece.  So the options:

JB it and forget it
Sassy new carbon number
Partial tail chop with different sassy carbon number
full tail chop
full tail chop and chop pretty (but long) cans to match

They all sound so appealing.  Don't feel like making a poll, just looking for opinionations.

Depends on on how bad you want to be / look.  I mean bad in a good way.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

hmmm.  the issue seems to be:

I probably won't be using the bike to commute as much in the future, so rain is less of an issue.  Also, the sassy carbon number is increasingly difficult (and expensive) to find.  This makes the tail chop seem like an okay option.  But I still have a practical side, and that side says 'no way!'

Pondering continues.

Oh, and for Mac, the answer is Superbad! cheeky

That is still in the plan, but I need the SSS.
