Don't get all hurt. My favorite bike (sadly stolen) was a Bridgestone conversion. Fantastic bike to ride about, but not bike porn. There are threads for conversions, beaters, city bikes, etc. This one is for "bike porn." If someone posted a museum piece in the beaters, I'd think it was out of place, just as those Schwinns (or my Kabuki) are out of place here.

And what the hell is with the ad hominem attack? I ride my bike all the time, thanks -- just because I don't think your Schwinn is pretty, it means I don't ride??
