I can dig it. The red keeps the bike from being a boring "all black" bike.

Wheel decals removed, new bottle cages, staging with some actual sunlight.

Does the top tube have a tumor on the bottom of it?? It's … cute. I wouldn't call it hot, though no.

I got so many 'not's' on my CX as a road bike I ran away!

Don't forget to change the hoods, groupset, stem, wheels, and seat post.

A little over exposed but I'm not a photographer and you get the idea.

Some mango tape would be go really well with that bike, instead of the blue.

Too much orange. The blue is matched to our team kits (as is the orange).

It's mine, but not in my possession yet, so I can't take my own pictures. I'll have it two weeks from today...
09 caad 9
Record carbon shifters and carbon front derauiller
Chorus carbon rear derauiller and carbon crank
keo carbon blades
ritchey carbon seat post, stem, handlebars
some kinda fancy wheels that I can't remember...

Yeah, I may have called something the wrong name or forgot something important...it's my first "real" bike and I'm still bike stupid. Forgive me, I'll do better next time.

scplus5 06-13-14 06:53 AM

Well that sucks. It shouldn't have been upside down....I really wasn't ready to let the world know that my bike can defy gravity. I was going to wait until my first race to show off that feature.

It is. The first build suffered RD hanger snappage, resulting in much damage to components and frame. Had it blasted and powdered. @slowjamz, I've done all black before, in fact, this frame used to wear all black. Red is a change. They were out of black cages, so oddly, that is what turned the build to red.

It's a medium size. Unfortunately Yeti doesn't make the cross bike anymore. It really is a great riding bike.

Not due to blue tape and website wheel logos. But I would borrow it for tailgating at U of I.
