Most of all though you are ****ed because you complained about someone ruining a tt bike by putting drops on it when the fake pursuit project you're working on is much worse.
I will admit that I do like the way disks look, especially on pursuit bikes. But I also am interested in why they're different from spoked wheels. And to clarify, I don't plan to race it but I will ride it on the track. I want to build up a bike that will be a different experience to ride. Maybe I shouldn't have made fun of the 3Rensho, but I do think that putting drops on it was silly. I don't know what makes it "fake" or "pretend" besides the fact that I won't (can't) race it. But it interests me, and that makes me happy.

You're mean, Dutret. Again, what is it that you would do in my position? What do you suggest?

Ryan- I meant track ends all along. My bad. That Guerciotti is going to be incredible.
