I think you should get some pink Continental GP3000 tires to match.

Wouldn't you rather put a chain on that's known for performance rather than looks? or do you not have many chain breaks on the road? :)

actually, I'm a big fan of pink. Everyone tells me my bike will look gay if I put a pink chris king headset on it :(

I've never had a chain break yet. We just barely put this on, so we'll see how it goes.

I dunno about the tires. Might be over doing it.


Pheard...don't listen to everyone. Do what you want to do. :)

When I have the money, I'm going to get a pink chris king headset. The donation to breast cancer is the added bonus. If I have the money I'd get some pink hubs too.

Shadiyah
10-12-06, 01:06 AM
Yup, I want to get the breast cancer awareness saddle. I think it will look quite sharp. :) And I hear they are very good saddles as well. :)

You should get pink bike shorts and quit riding in jeans. ;)

Dude, she's riding a fixie. The standard uniform is girl jeans w/ the pant legs rolled up.

Shadiyah, some pink Velocitys would look real sharp on the Pista. That a KMC chain?

Nice bike, nice track stand, back tire needs air it appears.

back tire needs air it appears.

I thought so too, but if you look closely, it's the shadow making the tire look "fat" before and after the contact patch.

I got it off ebay, from a link that someone posted in my last bike thread. :p And yeah, its a KMC.

I would imagine that chain come in all sorts of colors if they have pink.

I'll get some bike shorts, but they won't be pink. :p I don't have any as of yet.

Real men don't worry about wearing pink or riding pink! They are secure enough that @ssholes opinions don't matter!:D

I still break out a pair of these old shorts (from around 1990) for certain occasions. :D

Very cool Shadiyah!

Yeah, I agree, pink rims would be very cool.

It depends how much you wnat to pink out on the bike, but I think it's SRP that makes some colored chainring bolts , and misc bike bolts as well.

Don't forget the pink Phil Wood track hubs along w/ the pink Deep V's.

Shadiyah
10-12-06, 03:46 PM
I have straps. :D

And I'm not very good at track standing yet, as you can see in the pic, only one foot is stapped in! :p On my blog I have a funny pic of me losing my track stand and trying to pull my foot out of the strap really fast. :p

russiankdi
10-12-06, 03:47 PM

Yes i know you do, but when you have a pic of you track standing your right foot is clipped in and left isnt.:p

That's sharp. Is that an S&S connector? And if so, why only on the top-tube? I love that Miche Supertype post.

Its just a piece of old grip to keep my bars from causing a dent on the TT.

Nice cranks. Remember the Bulletproof logo comes off with little effort. IMO it looks better without the logo, but have the bike the way you like! I like the pink.

Tried skidding yet? :D ;)

Hmm, well not really a fan of chrome colored bicycles, too flashy for my blood but hey! I think the bike would look better with normal drop bars, I dont know why those style of handlebars became fashionable, they look silly if you ask me, but whatever. Great photos though.. always love to see a grown woman riding a bicycle (rare sight 'round here!)!
