Here are some links to my new colnago track bike. It's a 53cm frame and fork, powder coated at A1 underground, and some vintage stickers I have held on to for 8 years, gold paul hubs, gold velocity deep v's, gold campy 170 bmx cranks and bottom bracket, gold pedals, gold straps, green clips, gold izumi bmx chain, nitto gold bars and stem, campy headset, brooks green saddle, nitto post, and mks chain tensioners. It looks like Magic Don Juan's chalice.

Looks like it should be in a bad rap video or belongs to a pimp that rolls on a fixie instead of a caddie. Too much bling for my taste, but to each his own...

Lemme help you out:
Nice ****ing bike! - But might this fall under the "so nice you can't even ride it" category?

It only has a few miles on it, and it's not my daily. I have been stockpiling gold parts for a while and decided to put them in action (or lack of..) I know, no need to carry a lock. I guess i will put it back in the hyperbolic chamber! say goodnight!

Put that in a frame! You also might want to head over to the BMX forum and track down an old school gold fluted seatpost.

i do like the look of that bike, but it kinda sucks having a bike that looks too nice to actually use. I hate having to crapify everything that I own just so it wont get stolen in this city.
