Foo - Hey Foosters, have a dream bike? Post it here andddddd here's mine

darn it, has been searching for a bike (for fun) that would categorize it self as a All-Mountain, I only end up with Epiphany, well went to competitive cyclist and I end up making the bike around RM15k.

So I went searching again, and sadly I ended up at Trek's Fuel EX line and im stucked there. I got addicted to the FUEL EX line. Oh my gawsh, Im totally addicted to the Fuel EX 8, check this out http://www.treknology3.com/2007/trek/mountain/pages/f8.htm

I believe they are clearing the past XTR models and decided to package it with the Fuel EX8, what you need to do is just change the shifters to the new XTR and you get ur self, one hella of a bike :D, and its weight is around 12kg. Not bad for a Marathon XC bike. (Actually after thinking and decided my self, I decided that I want to ride longer and further instead of faster, which means I am supposed to look for a comfortable XC all terrain bike instead of a XC race bike and its weight should be around 11-12kg) The irony.....

Oh well, when I work, maybe I get that instead of Epiphany :) damn 07 Trek rocks

I'm pretty happy with Vivian. :love: She's my Cervelo R3 with silver destickered Rolf Prima Elan Aero wheels, DuraAce, Zero Gravity brakes, and Deda white bar tape. Cost no object, though, I wouldn't mind a Cervelo Soloist Carbon SL with Lightweight Obermayer wheels, undecided as to DuraAce, Record, or Force. Zero Gravity brakes and Deda or Cervelo branded white bar tape.

This is what makes a KONA sexy. :D

yeah, it does look sexy. Ooh and you reverse your quick release lever. Cool

When I get the money (it'll be quite a while), I think this will be my next bike...2007 Trek Session 77...

It's on the non disc side... (hot hot hot!) This is an all mountain bike, a little more tougher than my Caldera and Cake, which are XC.

eh...Hw come Session 10 and 77 looks different? I saw a Session 10 once. That guy was doing a repeating wheelie. Is it Kona Dawg?

yeppers. 2006

Oo, niceeee

eh...Hw come Session 10 and 77 looks different? I saw a Session 10 once. That guy was doing a repeating wheelie.

The Session 10 has 10 inches of rear wheel travel, while the Session 7 and 77 have about 7 inches. I don't like how the 10 looks, but I really like the 77. Unfortunately, I'm sure it'll be several years till I have enough money to get a new bike.

i have too many dream bikes to post. i'd like a Cowan, though.

dont be shy, just posts ALL you current dream bikes

I dare not post my dream, for fear it might not come true! :rolleyes:

My dream bike would be something classic that I personally restored/built up. Preferably 80s Italian.

Along the lines of this:

or this:

or this:

or this:

or of course this:
http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p201/jfblodi/Pinarello-Rad.jpg

This would also work:
http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p201/jfblodi/SchwinnParamount2.jpg

as would this:
http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p201/jfblodi/Modolo-Titan.jpg

or even this:
http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p201/jfblodi/Davidson.jpg

Yes, any of the above would work quite nicely :D

It's on the non disc side... (hot hot hot!) This is an all mountain bike, a little more tougher than my Caldera and Cake, which are XC.

Perhaps he meant reverse it so it so it folds backwards... preventing any sticks or anything catching the lever and opening it while you're riding along?

no no, I mean she changed the lever to the derailleur side, my lever is on the disc side.


I dare not post my dream, for fear it might not come true!
There is nothing wrong in dreaming, man :D, that what pushes us to improve :D

I'd like one of each discipline:

For track: Yes, yes I know the name is strange but I don't give a rat's

wow, all of those are sweet bikes

Yes, any of the above would work quite nicely :D

I have a nice 84 Ciocc like one of those you posted. They're absolutely awesome bikes.

I want a nice aluminum/carbon Colnago. We have one at the shop [not my size], but I can't afford that for a while. I like my Fuji otherwise.

Two come to mind right now...........

First is a Lynskey.........

Second which I really like as the level four above........

Okay I have a confession. And this is Skiahh's fault.

All this talk lately about Bianchi, *ahem* road bikes, cyclocross....I'm having the UMB built up within the next week or so (see my countdown by my avatar?) And then off to Colorado I go. I was supposed to go last year but things came up. This time I'm actually being able to make it. Yes, I already made plane and car reservations.

What's in Colorado?

My nephew's shop. http://www.vecchios.com/index.html

He carries this:
http://www.moots.com/images/full-psychlox.jpg:D

And Mich, you get to be the only person beside myself to not only touch it, but you can ride it. ;)

My dream is to get my baby back up and running. Its gonna cost more money than I have until after I graduate.

Dream bike I'm working on:

http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o286/Flycrow/Untitled-1.gif

Just this one. A Madone SSL in Metallic Grey Pewter Carbon.

Either at the end of 07 or early 2008.

You're gonna need more sig space, Cycle.

I just dream about riding the bike I already have:

This thread starts off as oddly familar. Hmmm...very similar to a thread in mtbing....odd...

Mine would be along these lines.

So now you're getting a moots! pssssht. Hey you might not even like the way it rides. Is mich going to be in colorado? How come he get's to ride it and Jon doesn't. :(

I built mine...maybe just a few more changes this spring and I'll be done.http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j301/minesbroken/P10100034.jpg

I'll take full credit for this fault... but I'm offended that I don't get to touch or ride it! :mad:

Maybe because she thinks you'll try to jump it! :eek:
I'll just tell myself "it's just a roadbike". :D

Ok cool, I feel better already.

Dream bike? Probably my Lemond or perhaps something in Titanium.

Bike I want right now is a Bridgeston RB-T or a Bianchi Volpe. A friend at my LBS is going to Wisconson this weekend to scope out vintage bikes and is looking for me. I doubt that I will ever buy a new bike again because I enjoy fixing up old ones so much.

Siu, I did one of those.

If you have any questions, please ask!

My bike is what I dreamed about up until recently and it's all I'm worthy of riding right now anyway. Putting me on some awesometastic bike would be like Jessica Simpson in a F1 car on the track. Silly. ;)

Yeah, its the the same as oh crap, but I realise that I wrote the wrong title and this is the correct title. Its amazing that most Foosters are roadies :D

thats what my dad rides (trek 400 series?)
Oh cool!! Do you think you can post pics? :)



So now you're getting a moots! pssssht. Hey you might not even like the way it rides. Is mich going to be in colorado? How come he get's to ride it and Jon doesn't. :(
No Mich isn't going to Colorado :rolleyes: And Jon doesn't because he is too tall.



I'll take full credit for this fault... but I'm offended that I don't get to touch or ride it! :mad:
That's because I know you'd rather play with my stanchions instead.

Wow that sure is nice!! Thank you, I'll let you know!

No Mich isn't going to Colorado :rolleyes: And Jon doesn't because he is too tall.

Oh sure... :rolleyes:

Do I get to at least stroke it a little?
