Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Apparently you are still alive. The glacier must have melted a little.

It's an 01 Litespeed Arenberg I bought off CL last summer. I stripped it down, put the other parts on 2 other bikes and built this one up with Force/Red. Frame cleaned up like new.

Painted Ti

Here is another example of a painted ti frame with exposed stays. This will be built with campagnolo record and some S2.0 low profile wheels. It's a more traditional panel paint scheme. I'm a sucker for steel frames and had a traditional round tubed ti frame lying around so thought... why not.
