Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Hi everyone,

Posted these pics on another thread but I have been urged to put them where they belong - in the TI thread!

Enjoy.

Build list:

Litespeed Tuscany 57cm 2006
Full chorus groupset
ITM Forged lite stem
Deda newton OS bars (looks good with the campy and has a nice flat profile!)
Easton EC90 SLX fork
Chris King Headset
Wheels:
DT Swiss 240 hubs, Mavic open pro 28h/32h F/R, DT revolution spokes, aloy nips
Chorus seat post
Fizik Arione saddle
CrankBrothers eggbeater SL pedals (borrowed from my other bike for the immediate future)

I think thats about it...

Need some better bottle cages - thinking of the Tacx Tao from PBK. Any thoughts??

Cheers,

Tim

Ive miraculously become aroused... considering that I am nothing but an appendage-less torso, that is pretty amazing.

No, not yet... I would like to add a Ti-Cross Bike to make my stable more versatile, or find a good deal something Titanium, I'm always checking out Titanium frames

I prefer the before version.... I like white decals on Titanium.

But it's your ride

+1 I'd put just the Litespeed decals back on and go back to the black tires. Looks good either way though..

I think the frame looks cleaner and the tires add a nice splash of color. But yes, nice either way.

And please, clean those fingerprints!

Honestly I've been too busy racking up some miles. It's been pretty spotty weather and right now it's covered in road grime and gatorade I'm planning on washing her up and taking a few shots in the AM. Thanks for asking though!

Oops sorry too late. I'm off today so I decided to give the Lynskey a quick cleaning before today's ride.
