They're still about 4 of each color in the box. the ones that I found were 23 and they skid really nicely.

[QUOTE=sr20det]lolercopters.

man, I walked past cavern today and I saw the most rediculous bike go into the shop.
It was a colnago track with super mad angled uncut riser bars. I almost walked into the person infront of me.

Yeah...that was Chris...just got back from several months in Europe. He bought that Colnago Master Olympic frame, fork and h.s. from the velodrome in Zurich for a cool $500. The guy who packed it "forgot" to put his Pista bars in the box so he is rockin the risers for the time being. It does look ridiculous eh?
6 o'clock...PSTT...first beer goin down the hatch. 2 1/2 hours till drunken guitar god worship begins. YAHOO!!

She's a track frame alright, the headtube is supersteep and the toe overlap is immense. Nice and light Columbus Neuron tubing.

Campagnolo Record hubs, Ambrosio Mr.Martin rims, Campa Mirage Headset...

Running 49 x 16; nice and quick

operator 06-16-06 05:27 PM

Kaibot 06-16-06 05:40 PM

FTL...

I'm laughing so hard I need a diaper.

Gah, I didn't believe there were so many hills in Toronto proper; I biked down Warden across Finch and then down Yonge.

Nice, thanks for the info. Beautiful bike, btw.

Hey, do you guys sell a fair amount of bmx stuff at C.S.? I've been sending all my mountain/bmx inquiries your way but I suppose I should see if you actually sell anything.

eyefloater 06-16-06 07:49 PM

Keith/Andrew:

Great tips, I'll head out tomorrow morning and pick up my ferry ticket. I think I'm just going to go out and have some fun, nevermind trying to do "well." Maybe I'll see one of the messers who come into Cycle Therapy and just drag my ass behind them for the race. ;)

Was just looking at the bike (steeker flickr) very nice, there was a local shop selling them on ebay not long ago when i was shopping but cavernmech kind of scared me off with the steepness thing .Nice build up looks like it would be fun to ride.
Cheers

yeah, steep is purty alright, but I'm not convinced a steep track bike would be a daily commuter for me. I've got to o many snakebite flats slamming potholes on my route. Not always an option to dodge 'em when you're sharing the road with tandems and SUV drivers channeling the ghost of Gilles Villeneuve.

Kai, definitely let us know about BMX stock. I need to build up the Raleigh 20 frame I have on my kitchen floor.

Sh*t six weeks to wait for my Tattoo, all I want is a black track bike with Fixed Gear underneath it in Gothic Bold...... P.S. I could not find her web site?

cavit8 06-16-06 08:17 PM

Okay you monkeys. We have two of our own, eyefloater and somnabulent doing the Friends for Life ride. I just took a spin through both the pledge pages and I've yet to see much evidence of any support from folks here.

I know not everyone is flush but every little bit helps. I dropped $100 bones each, mostly cause eyefloater promised to clean my Ciocc with a toothbrush for a month, but I challenge everyone here to drop $20 or more on these guys. Split it between them or just empty your pockets and give what you can. Even the price of a beer will help, like you really need it you chubby walrus. Apart from being able to hold it over their heads for the rest of their lives, you're supporting a good cause. Chances are someone you know or you yourself may be influenced by the effects of this deadly disease.

So pony up, buttercup. For the half the price of a new jersey, a couple of beers, or a massage (sans happy ending) from operator, you can make a difference, feel good about yourself, and know these boys are going to earn every red cent as they gftg.

Do it. You know you want to...

*stands there awkwardly*

Err ... thanks Cam. :) I'm not one for the hard sell (donations would be appreciated though).

I'm not above doing stupid **** for money, so keep that in mind.

STEEKER 06-16-06 08:21 PM

I'll dropsome coin but not over the internet stuff just tell me a place or I'll drop it at cycletherapy K
