It was put together and photographed at GOrilla Urban Cycling in Zurich.

It is kind of like a studio parading as a bike shop, except they are not

Thank you!  I don't get many comments, actually.  Most bikes around here 
are vintage, so it kind of fits in.  Doesn't stand out.  I think removing 
the Honjo fenders also toned it down a bit.
