Things I have bought for my bicycle in 2013

I bought a used track bike in the fall of 2012 for the purposes of commuting in NYC. I met some seedy asian dude in LES and forked over $180 bucks. The bike was set up with a fixed gear and track pedals, a crappy seat and dirty handlebar tape.

Here is everything I've invested into this bicycle in 2013

• new bar tape - $12 with installation at LBS
• clip on rear fender - $15
• clip on fenders (rear and front) - $10
• rear hub rebuild and new bearings 2x - $40
• white lighting 2x - $16
• lithuium grease - $5
• Park Tool Chain cleaning system - $30
• rear rack - $15
• REI Panniers - $60
• Continental Gatorskin tire - $30
• Inner tubes 3x - $20

Total $243
