Every last part on serotta is spot on. This is the stuff i drooled on as a kid. Tricolor and open 4cds look timeless on American steel.

Road bike aesthetics are regressing and shimano is leading the charge.

For those wondering why the rear brake is mounted backwards...well, that rear brake bridge is just too cool to be covered up...

Thanks Nate! Yeah, it's a huge frame, 63cm ctt but with the high bottom bracket the stand over is 35 1/2". I'm almost 6' 4" and it's at the max for me.

Very nice looking bike. It looks quite a bit bigger than 63cm(imo). The bottom bracket is higher than the norm though.

This accommodates for what could be a longer than average crank.
