er.... not sure what i have got being an amateur!
Bought it second hand from a LBS (only just sussed out what it stands for!!!), I know its a reynolds frame and the wheels "look" expensive, its 105 kit I think also?? Am I a total no hoper in the bike world or what!!! If I list the components out on here will someone tell me if the bike is any good********** Wouldn't want to buy a new one in January if the one I have is good??

That bike came out sweet, and the bar angle looks really good. 2 things though, exchange that seat for a black one and ditch the white bar tape. what size frame is that? Why did you try so hard for the red white and blue?

Finally, I'v had this bike for about 5 months and this is the first picture I have taken of it (got a digital camera for Christmas)
It'a a 2002-03 Nevada City, my first "real" bike. I have added a Titanium Selle Italia seat, a new stem (dont know which, bike shop put it on for me) and Egg Beaters with Sidi shoes.
I'm very happy with this setup, I ride 5 days a week, 16 miles a day, trying to get ready for spring so I can enter some rides

Fuji Roubaix Pro
Finally got around to buying a road bike...
'03 Fuji Roubaix Pro, complete 105 gruppo. Only thing changed so far is saddle from stock crappy Fuji to Brooks Team Professional, and added Egg Beater S pedals (soon to be replaced by either Time Impact or Speedplay), frame pump, bottle cages, seat bag. I'll fit the cyclocomputer tonight!

Omg!
It's nice to see another happy Pinarello owner. It is making feel bad that I haven't been able to get mine back on the road after my move. Gotta fix that ASAP.
How long have you had her?
