              Hi. Thanks for the site. Here's 
              my Kogswell P58 - last batch of the lugged Kogswells. I believe 
              150 total were made of the "P." This is my road bike, although it 
              doesn't fit in too well with the carbon bikes I encounter around 
              San Diego. The previous owner came up with the color scheme (metallic 
              gunmetal paint) and most components - mostly vintage Shimano 105 
              - also you'll find: a Brooks Professional pre-softened saddle; TTT 
              stem; Nitto moustache bars; MKS track pedals (soon to be switched 
              out with black touring pedals when the order arrives); Schwalbe 
              Marathons; Mavic MA3 wheels; Velo-orange unpolished fenders and 
              mudflap; aluminum bell; Sliver sidepulls, Tektro levers with shellaced 
              black cloth tape. I'm 
              not much of a speed demon - riding mostly for transportation - but 
              this is a fast, fun bike. Kirk 
              Pacenti's lugs are hard to see in the photos - but consult other 
              P entries to check them out. I'm tempted to get a konversion fork 
              and turn the bike into a P-P/R. Enjoy!
