From what I hear, they're really good on delivering when promised. When you get it, pix or you're banned from the thread!!!

This is what I'm riding now. Only half of it qualifies for this thread so I'm going for full titanium.

A comparison thread would be an interesting read.

That was between Encinitas and Leucadia on S. Vulcan Ave. We had just come out of Rancho Santa Fe via Del Dios Highway.

Great ride and awesome weather.

Ugh, just killing me softly here.

Note to self: get a better career and purchase Helix when the dispensable income gets bigger.

I have to agree with that statement. I can understand the value of a carbon fork.

You guys are killing me, I am dying for one of these Ti bikes. I love the helix and found this one today. Hoping to come up with the money by the end of the listing Might be a little tough though. Great deal,,plus I already have a set of wheels in mind.
