Dude, give some details on this thing! Those aren't 650b's are they?
I have a Kilo TT, and I love it. I'm currently working on a 3 speed fixed gear, but I'm using an old Trek frame to do it. I thought about using the Mercier, but it doesn't really have clearance for fenders unless I want to use like 23c tires. Also, it doesn't have any braze-ons for shifter cables.

For the wife
 

Just picked up a new one for my wife. Pretty stoked about it, actually...I've been ogling the Marinonis for a while now. Even if it's not for me, it's still some nice eye candy.

We have a rear rack and bottle cage, still need to locate some fenders I'm happy with, then it'll be all set for spring.

neil - you are a good husband.

Which bike?

Here's the bike I commuted around on while in the Gulf, older pic... I ended up tossing on a set of Kenda Kwest 26 x 1.5's:

Here is a Diamondback hybrid I bought on Sunday. I went hoping it would be a road bike that would work for a friend that wants one, but it turned out to be this solid hybrid. I was there so I offered $50 and they accepted.

I decided I would try and make into a cross bike which is something I have wanted to try and do for a while. I added specialized drop bars (I really like them I had never mounted them before) and they have alot of great hand positions. I added some different wheels and some new cross tires I had laying around. For some reason I like the paint job. Its like the bike is made out of an Oreo Blizzard. Mmmm... Don't mind the long cables and poor cable routing because I can't find my cutters. The seat I got for $1 at the thrift store today to replace the fat one that was on it.

It rides great from the living room to the dining room. Its going to be a few days before I can get out and ride this one with all the snow around here.

I like that monster pile, i agree with the paint job even i would leave that one original:)

Thanks thats a big compliment coming from you. =)

I thought you would find this interesting. I picked this up today. Its supposed to be a 2009 Trek 3700 heavily modified including polished up. The guy I bought it from said the PO chopped off the rear brake posts so now its a disc brake or nothing frame. It has everything except I need a mounting plate or something to get the rear one to work. I got basically a complete bike with disc brakes plus a bonus hub, wheel and some rims. I am not sure what I am going to do with this bike, but I have wanted to try out one with disc brakes so I guess I got my wish. Part of me wishes I had passed on the deal though.

My Miyata finally got it's accessories completed. Brand new wheels with Nexus 3-Speed IGH, Nexus front brake/dynamo hub, Suntour absorber, and basket with cover.

Good luck with cheap disc brakes.

Nice looks like we'll have semi matching bikes:)
EDIT: im glad to see that treks alum. polishes out nicely

Theres such a thing as cheap disc's so long as you already have the wheels, heres an adapter that should work for that frame a buddy at work got one for his GF and it seems to work finehttp://cgi.ebay.com/Rear-disc-brake-...item2eb28627ac

Keep an eye on www.chainlove.com they have been having the Avid BB7's on sale for $39.99 as of late.

I know how you feel monster pile on not being able to pass up a good deal, ive been trying to wait on buying stuff for my trek until some of my stuff sells on the bay, but i went to the local co-op on my lunch break earlier and could not pass a XT lever/shifter set for 15$

The disc brakes turned out to be crap. Oh well, I can get my money back transferring the good stuff over to a good old steel frame. If I was serious about this bike I would put some nicer stuff on it anyway. There are some spots he missed in taking paint off and the bottom bracket isn't the best. I don't have the cash to buy real disc brakes right now and I don't feel like messing with that so I'll just hold onto the frame for now. Its the first poor buy of the year and probably one of the only ones I have had in quite a while. I still got a couple decent things off of it.

The good thing is I am excited about building up one of the steel frames in the garage. I think the small framed 1993 Hardrock Ultra is the best cadidate. It still has pretty nice paint.

What basket is that? Is it lockable?

new commuter/touring bike in my garage..KHS Flite 220,250 euros, off season deiscount..

when I bought it it looked like this
http://www.deviantpics.com/images/img1602.jpg

after some changes

stock wheels replaced with novatec hubs + jalco d27 36h rims + no name spokes

2200 shifters replace with tiagra , rear 2200 derauliler with deore, deore cassete and chain..so now setup is 2x9 ..

this is low end road / commuter bike, one of the cheapest I think(bought on sale for 250 euro).. but in Croatia I can't choose some touring/commuter dedicated bike like jamis aurora, trek 520 or surly lht.. there is no cr-mo frames at all to buy, this was only option, so I replaced some parts from my old commuter and made the best of it..
