you have to right click the facebook image and get the url to the image itself, not the page that the pic is sitting on.

Love the Colnago. But then again, I can't figure out why the 'murdered' look is so popular. I'm not riding in a funeral procession! Cycling is fun. Except when it's not. hmm... maybe the bike is supposed to echo the pain? Anyway, this Colnago looks happy!

Super hot Colnago! Everything else is trash.

Leinster 06-05-13 09:28 AM

The Mapei Colnago is a classic.

The murdered out look was good when it was novel, now it is way too common.

^Ok, I must be too new, because it never seemed 'cool' to me. But then, I like color and I think your bicycle should also represent your personality. I understand the "RULES" and most of them are valid advice, some are simply pedantic, but maybe that's part of being a tad (and by tad I mean oceans of) OCD bike guy/gal.

I do love this thread, though. Maybe I'm a tad OCD bike guy also! :p

It is scary how something almost as old as I am can be this hot!

New Willier Cento 1 SR with SRAM Red.

nhluhr 06-07-13 11:35 AM

Does SRAM not make a crank that can fit in a 386EVO BB?

Ugly crank, too many spacers, whack saddle angle. Imma say not. But there's potential there.

agree, ugly crank, saddle tilt, too many spacers, saddle bag, poor background choice to see all the detail, bad angle of the bike. I think I would go with black saddle, black bar tape if it were mine.

Sorry, Not. Where are the HOT bikes!!??? lately this thread has become Hot-r-STOCK

jtwilson 06-07-13 05:14 PM

I'd say it's more like Not-r-Notter. The Wilier above does have potential, just needs some work.

Penny Farthings are hot, but only if the rider has a handlebar mustache and is adorned in tweed (applies to both male and female riders).

I suspect there's more riding going on than picture taking. I've got nothing left to tweak on mine for the time being, but if I could afford a new bike...

The Wilier above will never get to hot for me, components aside I find the paint scheme and frame shape to be "ugh"....

DerHoggz 06-07-13 06:36 PM

I could get a picture of mine again with the new natural wall tires, could be divisive.
