I've got about 1" of uncut steerer above my stem. I figure it'll help keep the resale value.

I need to take some pix of my race bike with pink Bennoto tape. Kind of a Barbi meets Hinault thing.

Trek Madone 5.2 (64cm H2). When I learned that the year's manufacturing run of 6 series Madones in the 64cm size were sold out, I snagged this 5.2 at the LBS. Moved my Quarq over, upgraded the RD to D/A, and put on my preferred bars and saddle. It's at 17# even with the 404 tub's.
