Hey, nothing personal... though I think you'll understand when you get your Pinarello.

My NX7-3 was one of my best buys ever. LBS was changing product lines and this was the last one left - it had to go!

For recreational rides, an '02 Lemond Buenos Aires. For wet weather, boardwalk rides, and family outings, an indestructible 70's Ross lugged hybrid-like bike. The Ross is currently disassembled on the basement floor getting a complete rehab.

sorry, should have mentioned that the crankset is from FSA as even i, who has squandered so much $$$'s on bikes over the years (as we all have), could never justify the asking price of a campy carbon crank.

and sorry but the photo is distorted as the lens i used was a very wide angle but i have a pic of the frame with a normal perspective. picked it up on ebay after it failed to meet a very low reserve. for once i gambled and won.

Hey roadiegal: What color is your Karakoram frame? The reason I ask is, I recently built a commuter type bike on one of those frames that I bought of E bay, and I have no idea what year it is. I thought maybe if yours was the same color I would know it is a '96. I think it is around that era any way.
Thanks

From: n.w. superdrome

Bikes: 1 trek, serotta, rih, de Reus, Pogliaghi and finally a Zieleman! and got a DeRosa

current ride is an 85 Trek 670, all original except saddle and tires.
Have a steel serotta in the wings waiting for components (think
campy here) and searching for a Zeileman frame (or complete, it doesn't matter) for future build.
Don't have camera for pics, I spent all my money on audio & bike parts.

Bikes: 2 road bikes (1vintage Terry) and a mountain bike.

Wow, and I thought I loved my bikes. I don't have pictures of them......hmmm will have to do something about that.

Anyway:

MTN: GT Aggressor, with road slicks and a lovely pair of reverse tread tires. Standard package of shimano shifters and brakes, but with toe clips on the pedals.

Road: Trek 2000WSD (43 cm frame) (I am a shrimp), with the standard package, except for a lovely pair of look pedals.

Wow, lots of neat bikes. I don't have pictures to post as of yet...

A 90s vintage Colnago Gilco Master (not XLite) in red and chrome built up with a mix of Record and Chorus Ergo 8. I'm not sure of the year of the frame but I picked it up NOS from eBay last year.

An 80s Basso in Columbus SL. It also was an eBayer and on Campy-Only I found a guy selling a S Record gruppo including built wheels (Moskva 80s) for a very reasonable price. That and a DA freewheel and it rides every bit as smoothly as the Colnago above. Well, I changed over to dual pivot Record brakes. Sprayed it in blue found some decals NOS and repop and she's my baby.

A 2000 Univega Modo ? (the black and white one). Kind of heavy but smooth and stable. I can throw it in my trunk w/o being paranoid about the finish. Campy Triple. Mostly Mirage and some Veloce. It'll probably become a Veloce double as even my sorry butt doesn't need a triple in Fla.

Etc. A fixed gearthat is part 70s Schwinn LeTour and part nearly everything else under the sun and the 85-86 Cannondale SR 600 I rode while in college. I still think the Seasprite Green was Cdale's best color.

Saninno Road Frame with mixture of 3 or 4 types of Campy Record stuff including 8 spd ergo '93?

Older Sannino Frame I wore out, mainly form abuse, set up as fixed gear to work on my form, technique and spin '86?
( Yes, I REALLY like Saninnos)

( Alberto) Masi Prestige Road Frame w/Campy 50th annv gruppo 83?

Gitane Tour De France w/mostly Campy NR (Huret RD, french dropout) '72

Trek 520 Suntour drivetrain Campy wheel upgrade early/mid '80s

Schwinn triple bar cruiser, it's a project bike. I'm turning it into an all Campy single speed cruiser- BMX hubs and cranks, mtn brakes, Gran Prix pedals

Fat Chance mtn w/Sun Tour Gruppo late 80's

Schwinn Speedster- vintage unknown

and an inexpensive Raleigh 26" X 27" wheel road and an entry level Bianchi road for others to ride
and a couple of others I was given, I'll probably pass on to someone else.

I think that's all

The bike is a bright, fire engine red. The frame is steel. I love the bike. It's too bad that GT doesn't make steel frames anymore.
