i love that photo, the blue industrial background sets of the yellow really nice. I don't normally go for "techy" looking bikes but I dig that shot.

Seriously, I'm a bit of a new rider and don't have anything to compare it to but my 85 Trek frame. I'm probably not the best person to ask. Find a shop that sells em and take it for a ride.

I too saw this today, so f***ing sick. Fixed gear gallery should add a category to the yearly voting for "best photo regardless of bike". I like the bike too though.

Oh, and I noticed your in Chicago area, I guess you got this from yojimbo's, I saw they were on clearance there. How much did you get it for? I ride about a 57/58, which I guess is a 56 in their sizing, and am probably going up to chicago sometime next year, I wonder how much he marks them up over cost compared to businessclass for example.

This is an appeal to people who are looking for:
  • photo hosting
  • bike listings
  • love (no promises)

I am working on a new project geared towards bikes, bike photos and chicanery in general. Send me an email/PM if you are interested. It will take you about 20 seconds to sign up and another 20 seconds to upload some photos.

My email: greg at metanovus.com, PM here: gregg

photoshop

if you look at the area under the pedal, it is very similar to the area just to the right. it was proped up with a block, and the block was photoshopped out but copying the ground right next to it

you can see where the area that was copied has a corner that cuts into the rear tire. if you follow that down, you can see there is an edge where some lines on the floor dont match up

The photoshop comments are correct. It was held it up with a small white box. The bike actually fell over once when a breeze hit because the box was so flexible! There's a bit of other PS too. I'm not sure if this is where anyone is going, but welcome to the oldest argument in photography "photographs should document reality". I've been a photographer myself for 8 or more years and this is a common theme brought up.

The Miche post is available in black and silver but I believe it's hard to find the silver one's with those cut outs (or maybe it's the black ones?). To be honest, it's actually got set back that I don't need. It might get replaced in the future.

Do you have a higher res version of that, atomsuite? Might become my new wallpaper if I don't find it to be too dark.

yup
same light

yeah i picked up this kilo tt frame about 4 months back.
it's done me very well indeed.

the geometry is a little funny though
it feels loose when i'm up on the bars, but as soon as I drop into the bullhorns it tightens right up and handles like a dream.

If it only was my size!! I really love the look of this one. Not much wheel clearance, maybe too little, but still, it's a beauty.
