^ you spent $325?
This sport seems to be very addictive. I just bought my Felt F75 a few months ago and I already want to take it all apart and build it up better.

hmmmm....lets see...
$20 Raleigh Marathon that was relegated to garage rafter duty for 20 years.
I needing to make it mine.....and usable...
$25 tires
$10 tubes
$30 new spokes for rear plus old hub laying around from trashed wheel
$25 8spd cassette
$8 bar wrap
$38 RSX brifters and derailleurs
$12 computer
$30 pedals
$34 105 crank
$15 chain
$20 cables
$15 bottom bracket
$25 brakes
$30 seat
$20 seatpost
$357 for a smooth-riding steel bike that's somewhat modernized but still got some vintage appeal. (all original parts are boxed up and stored if needed). Although it's a bit heavy, it goes down the road really well. Got me into road biking and should keep me here a while

Yes, it's a common term for your car these days, from urban slang.
I think it comes from "my car's so awesome it'll give you whiplash." Or something.

wheel? well the wheels, indeed. my wheels are actually human legs. thats right. over 100,000 kenyans inside of extraterrestrial-based compounds. my brakes are made of danger and kryptonite
and my shifters are lightning.
my headlight for is the 1/3 sun and 2/3 amazing.
