Bought my first road bike. Giant Defy Advanced 3. Also bought my wife a specialized Ruby. Don't mind the pedals I'm planning to get some clipless pedals and some shoes this week.http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...psmfzhiyz6.jpghttp://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...psjpgfcbuw.jpg

I started biking last year with a 2012 Giant Defy 5 I bought used from a LBS. Gave the Giant to my brother and built this.

Sorry about the huge pictures!! (not really that sorry)
Trek is an 89 and converted to brifters (RSX). Merckx is late 80/early 90 with 2000's Record Titanium/Carbon. My other bike is a 2010 Specialized Secteur Elite, but I don't have a photo of it.

I recently bought a new road bike after owning my Trek 29r for about a year. I was commuting into work on the Trek and using for off roading but wanted something a little quicker/lighter and able to ride long distances.
So I got an awesome deal on a Lapierre Sensium 200CP and just finished putting it together. Putting it together was fairly easy but as you can see I fudged up on the grip tape so I'll have to redo that sooner or later. I threw on some old pedals I had since my new clipless pedals/shoes haven't arrived yet. I can't wait to start riding this thing more then around the block. https://scontent-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hp...95&oe=55CA32E1 Component list: CARBON FRAME Carbon Steerer FSA 1"1/8 1"1/4 FSA ORBIT C-33 44E + 15mm top cover SHIMANO 105 KFC5800CX04L 50x34 170mm / 172 5 (M) / 175 (L XL) SHIMANO 50x34 SHIMANO PRESSFIT SHIMANO 105 SHIMANO 105 11-SPEED SHIMANO 105 2x11-SPEED SHIMANO 105 11-SPEED 11-28T SHIMANO SHIMANO RS010 MICHELIN DYNAMIC SPORT 700x25 SHIMANO KBR5800 RITCHEY COMP CURVE W:40 (XS) / 42 (S, M, L) / 44 (XL) RITCHEY 4 AXIS WTD 6° DIA:31.8 E:90mm (XS-S) / 100 (M) / 110 (L) / 120 (XL) SELLE ITALIA X1 |

Great looking bike!
|
My first road bike ever is still being shipped. I expect to receive my new (used but in a great condion) by Friday. Its a Colorado Legend TI.
Of course some might say Seven, Moot or so are better. My Colorado still has to be much better ride than my folding Downtube Nova. |

Hello all,
I'm a relative Newbie to this game (@48yo) however I am very much enjoying my new found 'hobby'! Hopefully these images post OK. I've just finished my first ground up build with the De Rosa and I'm very happy with how it's all come together. The Norco can now hang in the shed for wet days. http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=450756http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=450757 |

I have an old school 1981 miyata 710 that's been completely re-done. I love it. Just hit 8000 miles!

I obviously need some more pics, but here's the only one I have uploaded anywhere.

Now you need to buy a DeLorean as your car. Then you can have 2 time machines.

This is the largest size frame they make. It's a conservative start. I'll likely cut it down some more after I ride it for a bit and get situated but it's better than cutting it first and wishing I had it back! |

Brand spanking new, 2016 Felt Z5. Full 5800 Shimano 105 groupset, except the brake calipers were felt branded and I put on ultegra calipers. Breaking it in on a 50mi ride tomorrow, super excited. |

I was hoping to get one used. They use to go for $99 new, which was a really good deal for an aluminum framed bike. I had one years ago and it rode decent ... like your signature ... I miss my old bike. However, I do know the components are not that great. I figure I could always upgrade them later. With that said I've also been keeping an eye out for other used bikes that might be good.

Do you have a local bike coop nearby? Anything would be better than the Denali.
