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

Hey Low Cel: Can you nip up to Canada and take a photo of mine? Perhaps then it will attain the coveted "hot" status.

Edit: Woo hoo, I got a "hot". Thanks UCI!!!!!

If I was going to steal a picture of a Colnago to claim as mine it would be a much more expensive one.

True that!

And by the way, I do not need your photography services as my bike has been deemed "hot" (even if for the wrong reason). Thanks for the offer!

Just want to mention that the frame is cheap and only a 12k carbon weave you can buy a complete 105 bike for $1400.00

Does that mean that only cheap bikes are hot? I didn't realize this was called hot or not for the price

I don't care what the BF nitpickers say...the Alpha is plain badass.

I highly doubt this is an off the shelf frame. So to the guys hating on the color...if you were able to afford one. I'm sure you can custom paint it whatever color you want.
