I'm riding an old Trek 1220 still stock with Shimano RSX components (Do they even make those any more?). The only things that I have changed on it are bar tape, tubes, and tires. I added clipless pedals and the necessities like a bike bag and frame pump. It does alright until I can talk the Mrs. into something a little better. :-)

I'm riding a Raleigh Fervent,

I've posted a pic below :

http://www.raleigh.co.uk/bikes/bikepics/43154-6.jpg


Borrowed these specs off the raleigh web site:

Colour: Olive/Silver
Frame: 7005 light Octoval Alloy
Wheel Size: 26"
Wheels: Alloy rims with quick release hubs
No. of Gears: 21Spd
Gear Set: Shimano CO50 + CI Deck
Fork: Suntour XCC-D alloy suspension
Brakes: Disc brake front with linear V-Brake rear.
Avenir race saddle
Integrated Aheadset
Front loading stem

I only got it on Thursday of last week but I love it too pieces. I've had Raleigh bikes before when I was younger (about 14, I'm 22 now) but this is the best I've ever had.

I put a pic of the MTB in the mountain bike section of the forums, but I'll throw description in here as well because so much has changed from the picture.

My MTB:
'00 Schwinn Moab 3 - Not very stock
-XTR levers/V's
-XT shifters
-M536 clipless
-Rhyno Lite rear wheel to take the technical trails around here
-Michelin XL rear/IRC Mythos front
-ODI Rouge Lock-on grips
-Shimano carbon fiber brake booster front and rear (difference noticed on the back, only slight on the front)
-Thomson Elite seatpost (only one I'll ever buy again)
-Selle San Marco RaceGel saddle (cheap, but comfortable for me)
-Avid Rollamajig on an Lx rear der/Deore front der/Truvativ Firex XL cranks
-SRAM PC-69 with Powerlink
-NOT from *Mart.

Fo the Road:
Lemond Nevada City - Almost completely stock except for a pair of 515's, which I plan on quickly replacing with some road pedals and road shoes when I start getting the paychecks from the new job. The 515's let me use my mountain shoes on the road bike because I couldn't afford a complete road setup with shoes/pedals. The bike has worked out great for training for mountain biking. I notice a big endurance boost.

I just got this bike together this year. Frame is by Van Dessel, made for 29" MTB tires. I have a White Bros. CX-1 fork carrying an Alex TD-17 laced 32 to a King ISO disc hub. Stopping duties up front are handled by an Avid mech caliper on a 180mm rotor activated by Avid Speed dials. Cane Creek took care of the headset and Thudbuster seatpost. Drivetrain is a Rohloff Speedhub, which is an internally geared 14 speed setup with the same range as a 27 speed Shimano drivetrain. I love this thing. This wheel gets stopped by another Avid mech + Speed dial on a 160mm rotor. Cranks by Ritchey and pedals are Shimano 747s. I've got a Cannondale CAAD 4 with XT, XTR, Raceface, Spinergy, etc. that has been relegated to the trainer since I got the new bike. Also one old Schwinn (early '80s?) 12 speed with 27" wheels that a buddy gave me. I'm gonna upgrade it a piece at a time, then put all the good stuff on a Surly Crosscheck frame.

I just got a new bike. It is a Fuji Cross bike '03. It has 105 components but I swapped out the cassette in the back for an 11-34, this meant that I also changed the rear derailer to a XT. The bike is great and in the picture 7 hours old.

Being newly divorced in 2001 allowed for me to make my return to road cycling. I got a 2002 Litespeed Arenberg outfitted w/Dura Ace and Ultegra mix, and I just recently received my red 2003 Hampsten Ultralight w/ Campy Chorus. Love them both like they were my own blood.

Finally, my new Kirk! I'm still sorting out bars and stems, so no bar-tape yet. Hopefully everything will be done soon, a 200-mile, three mountain pass ride coming in a week. Yikes!

I know what you mean. But even I drool over a new Aegis and I've already got one. Exceptional bike... great company to deal with. How are you having it built up? You'll definately need to post pictures when you get it?
