Gorgeous bikes. Just gorgeous.

My grails - my bikes - are all built on frames I lusted after as a teenager with no chance of ever getting one. Largely because they don't have that extra nostalgic kick for me, none of these are on my "God, I want it" radar. (Okay, maybe the Confente if it were in my rather large size. Maybe.) The same is true of the other bikes that have been posted in this thread. But I still love seeing and hearing about them and I am admiring the heck out of peoples' choices. Not a "WTF" in the bunch, but tons of bike porn.

It's big fun to see what floats whose boat. This is about as good as "YMMV" gets, at least in the C&V world.
