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

NICE.... ! Where did you order it from? The LBS in my area said ti isn't doing too well anymore and they no longer handle Litespeed or any ti bikes. They claim almost everyone wants carbon or lower cost aluminum bikes. I have an '02 Litespeed that still looks as fresh and new as the day I got her and have been lusting over the Icon.

I'm sure I'll have a real good look at the seatstays a few times this year.

Funnily enough, my LBS is now selling more Ti than ever at the moment...

They only do Litespeed road bikes in Ti. The others they do are Look, Cervelo, Trek, Cannondale, QR, Colnago...

I can't wait until it shows up on Craigslist in 7 years for $500.

I did, but in 7 years I'll probably be ready for an upgrade.
