Obligatory repost of my ca. 1985 Bridgestone 600 lugged steel bike -- along w/ the oft-repeated caveat that the seatpost, saddle, pedals, bars, stem, cassette, & r.d. have all been upgraded since this photo was shot:
I love the way my steel bike rides. And I have another steel bike on order. But I also have an all-carbon bike, and I like the way it rides, and if that bike ever craps out you can bet I will replace it with another all-carbon bike in a nano(tube)second. I likes dem bof.
Steel Is Real, but Carbon Gives Me A Hardon.
