Those are seriously stylish cages! Beautiful bike too, by the way. the only thing i would have changed is i would have made it Record instead of Dura-Ace.......but thats a personal decision.
Very sexy bike.

Here's a couple pictures.

Nice ride Micah, but there's just something that bugs me about an Italian bike not equipped with Campy.

Well, with some things, I stick to what I know. I've always used Shimano and been happy with it, so that's what I got for this bike. I've never used Campagnolo, but I might try it one day.

Bought this over 3 years ago. Bad timing, though -- before I could even ride it, conditions arose such that I couldn't ride until recently (still haven't ridden it!):
So, now that I can ride again, I have been getting back in shape on this single speed. I wanted to "earn" the right to ride the Cinelli. But, I love SS so much, I'm not sure the Cinelli will ever be getting love!

Looks like centaur or chorus.
It would have carbon levers if it was record right?

It's a mix of record (brakes, rear der, seat post) and chorus. And I'm in love with it... but... dang, do I love riding single speed.

Here is my new (and first) road bike. I found a deal I couldn't refuse. About 30 miles so far. Can't wait to find some hills for her...
Sorry no fancy bottle cages. Yes I am wearing my mountain shoes. And I'm a little nervous about purchasing some biking shorts.... but I gotta do it.
