^ hot but awkward like a volleyball player.
. Though no one cringed when they saw it either, or they cringed so bad they couldn't type out a negative response with their cramped fingers. Either way, that's a win for Scattantes everywhere.

OK I'll play. These were last year's bikes - they will change for this year.

It's size discrimination. Cycling is elitist.
Here's mine again... it's a 61 and it is a Scattante.

I said something similar a while back when I posted mine. There is something of an expectation or standard around size. I get the sense that the "perfect" size for appearance sake is about a 56, a 54 or a 58 are ok, but outside of that and something just looks off.

Yea, I get it on the tires, it's a little much. The white ones were on sale at PBK and I wanted to try Pro3s. It was a bit of a fashion risk that didn't end all that well.
I got some black ones on sale a couple weeks ago ("recent purchases") and just need to finish those off.

stole your bike
2010 Ridley Compact
SRAM Rival
Fizik Arione CX saddle
Ritchey WCS seatpost and Classic bars
PRO Vibe 7S stem
Ksyrium Elite wheel set
I removed all of the components from my BMC (damaged in an accident) and built up the Ridley. This was my first build so I learned a lot from the experience and had a good time doing it.

Nice bike there jorge. I love the visual appeal of the design of that frame. It looks good with rival, would probably look ridiculous with RED. I see the Kysriums around a lot now. Are they really that decent?

Thanks. Ksyriums are good all around wheels and serve my purposes really well, so if you can snag a pair for cheap I recommend them since they're pretty bulletproof and relatively light.
