Sixty Fiver, what tires do you have on that Twenty?

Just some light grocery shopping... :D

[MENTION=339114]MaggieJayne[/MENTION] that is a nice looking bike!

Schwalbe Marathons... the Comets I have are faster and a little more supple but around here the Marathons ensure that my riding is virtually flat free.

Yes, it did. Thanks for your input on that little project.

here's my newest commuter. It's a Chinese Carbon frame with Ultegra group. It weighs 18 pounds without the Timbuk2 goodie bag, lights, and quadlock cellphone mount.

That's actually a pretty nice looking frame! Are they copying the Pinarello Dogma there? Is it BB30 or something beefy like that?

I got off used off Ebay with the front der. and crank, and roadbikereview guys for Chinese carbon frames said it was a FLYXI FR-302.

Here is my cannondale bad boy on the way to work a few days ago. I won't complain about my commute. I have the privilege to go from one end of Honolulu, HI to the other "Waikiki". Just have a bunch of distractions along the beaches. :thumb:http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=331478

A Chinarello... as they are called.

Pinarello (as well as many other companies) has had many issues with fake Dogmas being sold but it serves them right for outsourcing their production to China where intellectual property rights mean nothing and labour rates are a fraction of what some some unemployed Italian tradesperson might make.

The bike looks great btw.

Great picture and an awesome bike.

I am thinking about getting Chinarello as a decal.

Here is my brand new commuter. It is a 2013 Nashbar Cyclocross bike. Frame and fork are 4130 chromoly. Right now it is completely stock so it is slightly on the heavy side. Wheels and tires are about 5lbs alone, but when you are riding you barely notice the weight at all. I will be putting the velocity A23 probuild wheels on them and that should take a few lbs off, but for $639 with shimano 105 shifters, derailleurs, and cogs I think it is totally worth it. Just had it framesavered up and it is ready for duty.

A CF fork might be a worthy upgrade for that also. :)

Actually there is no need for it due to high-volume tires that usually come with CC bikes. By the looks of his bike those are at least 700*32.

I have a full aluminium CC bike, and was sure that CF fork will be the first upgrade. Now, after three months and about 1000 miles later I see no point with 700*32 tires, and less than 6 bar in them. I ride road, gravel and single track (60/30/10%).

^^^Just tilt your head...

Here's my new daily ride, a Giant Escape 2:

This is my second bike as an adult, and the first one I've bought new. Difference between this and my old (but still dearly loved) 20yo mtb is huge.

The Moulton got a proper British saddle... I think that Wright's dates to the 1930's and I have worn it down so much the imprint is all but gone and hung the new Carradice bag which I think matches up so nicely.

Here's my rig parked outside of the Trek Store of Tampa, aka: work.

Once a week I strap on the quick release seat-post rack and trunk on the back with some fresh laundry and I take advantage of the shower we have in house. The rest of the week its just a seat-pack with a spare tube, levers, useful wrenches, keys, wallet, small snack (diabetic). I strap my U-lock and cable to the pack, post, and saddle, carry a small pump on the DT, and bright/rechargable Serfas lights and my iPhone riding Lifeproof up front.

I swapped the Kenda 35 knobbies it came with for some Kenda 28 slicks I had on the Torker U-District fixie I was riding before but other than that and the stuff strapped to it, its stock.

It's a solid, sporty, steel bike that rides smooth. I just got it a couple weeks ago and should be breaking the 200 mile mark tomorrow on my first long ride!

I recently had my '78 Trek TX700 repainted and built it up with a mostly DA 10 speed drivetrain. She is a great long distance rig and I will use her to commute on days were I don't need to carry anything into work, which is most of the time. I do plan on adding a front rack to accommodate a small duffel bag if needed, as well as fenders this fall.

Awwesomm Bicycle Pics. This is like a new mother's gallery. Fortunately I took pictures with me and friends. http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=331974 Friend Pete. Great runner and good cyclist with the chance.

Wow I'm really loving the looks of this bike. Classic build with modern grouppo, doesn't get much better than that! :thumb:

Beautiful rig !
