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

Very nice build - congratulations. I wish I could take your advice and experience the Serotta ride for myself. As for Ritchey components, I have WCS bars and stems on 6 out of my 7 bikes - light weight, great quality and a good value.

Nice ride! I just ordered a Legend Ti last weekend. Spec'd it with Campy Chorus and Easton Ascent II wheels. The wait is probably going to kill me.

Nice matching Chris King head set.

Ksyrium SL's are great wheels.

Hello onkey,

Very nice bike!

I lusted after the Legend until the Ottrott came out. After seeing your bike I'm not sure which one I would want now.
