The photo is from FGG that I saved ages ago but it could be Toronto, I dunno.

just got a great bike that is a bit too small for me but wow, it is fast! I haven't ridden a smaller frame in years and this one is a 56cm and it is made out of Columbus SLX so it is super-rigid and tight. I forgot about the agility you get with a smaller frame. I love it so far, the thing is gorgeous and I've only been out on it a few times but I've received a ton of compliments....the lugs on it are sweet and have some nice details to them. I should post a pic but it isn't fixed
post a pic of it anyway...
don't get me started on the "smaller frames are more rigid and fast" debate.
as a 6+ footer with ostrich legs it's been a life long dream of mine to get a frame big enough. i've rode my share of too-small frames. IMO, they aren't faster, they just make my back ache.
