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

Sorry not a fan of the Denti, above and beyond the improper pose of the bike itself. Those dimples in the frame kind of put me off along with a few other things. sorry

I know we strayed off topic a few pages back, but "C'mon Man"!!!

I guess with the thought of Halloween coming up, comes bringing back the dead...

High bottom bracket. Crit frame? Doesn't have a racy feel to go along with that purpose. Or maybe it's just camera angle.

That comment was for the Look.
The Denti... I just thought it was strange to find dents in a frame called Denti.

First of all, i'd like to apologize for the background, not really ideal but it was the best i could find around my house. Backt to my bike, probably not as hot as it could be. But i'm mainly interested in what you guys think about this not 'too common' design/color. More importantly, does it have potential? So bianchi10 fire away, i can take it.

It's been slow in here, so I'll throw my bike up again. Put on the compact spidering last night. Much better than the FSA. So smooth!
