Wut. Same bike?

Took me a minute.

Boring bike with DuraAce.. WTH is up with MTB pedals?

Those would be Speedplays. :rolleyes:

Yeah, because everyone has a custom filet brazed frame, that was actually made by Tom Ritchey. He liked the blue paint I selected so much that it became a stock color the next year.

BTW, those are Speedplay Zero road pedals.

:rolleyes:

Still looks like every other steel road bike out there.. boring.

Are you still butthurt about your Chinabomb getting panned?

Just telling truth.. boring bike you got.. 0/10 IMO what u gonna do?

Could care less about anyone says about my bike.. I just ride it.

No doubt.


And if his knowledge of pedals is any indication, he probably thinks Tom Ritchey is the former co-front man for the for funk band the Commodores.

:roflmao2:

Me too. Love it.



Can we organize an intervention about those bars?

;)

I particularly like the stem. :thumb:

Filet brazed and fastback stays! Doesn't get much better. Butthurt Chinabomb sounds like a good name for a take out food place.

I like em both.

:lol: Yeah, I think I'll pass.

I'm open to accepting donations :thumb:

The frameset, bars, stem, and post are from the original build. They had been sitting in a box for 17 years. Last week I found a ridiculous deal on a 7900 groupset, and I threw it together for a friend to ride while he's in town on a 3 month business trip.

Sadly, it's a little too small for me.

Cat is so butthurt he trolling me over in the NYC Commuters thread in Northeast forum.

Go easy on him. You don't want to get an infraction over this(but give him enough rope to hang himself).

Thanks for the heads up.

It’s getting a little unruly in here guys, let’s keep it about bikes, not personal attacks.

Also, if you’re sensitive about your bike this is not the thread for you.

Finally, what happens in here stays in here, no dragging feuds or baggage from here to other threads or forums ... that’s harassment.

He painted it a different color on each side.

Stunning
Spectacular
Eye-popping
OMG that is SO hot!
I don't think I've ever lusted after a bike this way, it's unnatural!

Funny thing, I don't disagree with the nit-picking others have done, and I take exception to the group, but the rest, the whole thing is so alluring, I can forgive a LOT.

bike is hot...photo is not.

At first I thought you had two same bikes with different color and I was like :foo:

But then when I realized they were the same I was like :love:

Even without the color bike is hot, but the paintwork is so stunning I would love to see a video of it showing both sides.

Very Helvetica; handsome, but not very exciting. The orange helps, though. I like it.

Not bad. Tape's a bit much though.
