I know what you mean and I would have to agree. Although I wouldn't be against one or two Sandra Bullock fantasies myself. :innocent:

Just went and measured the drop on the bike and it is 3" (~7.5 cm). You have 6" of drop! You are da' man, don't know if I'll ever get there.

Yeah, you are halfway there. I've been running my road bikes like this for about 4 years, I guess I am just flexible. I will admit with my broken collar bone, with my shoulder brace, it is kinda hard, and I contemplated flipping it up, but this shall pass soon enough. BTW, I think we have a name for your bike, if it didn't have one before.

There is something about these Argon bikes (Canadian?) that do it for me.

HOT in my book.

Would look even better if this full body picture was taken from the other side...

I might disagre with you on that one SA.

I know mine can't possibly compete with most of these. But I built this one up to be my first "real" road bike. I added an Ultegra 6703 FD a few days back. Many more changes to come. IE: wheels, seat, bars, crankset, etc.. But I think its an OK start.

As it sits it's about 19lbs.

Lovely bike, but would be hotter without the wheel stickers.

Like I said WHOOOSSHHH. I'd hit it, but I've never fantasized about her. She has that perfect girl next door thing going on. Kinda like the C'Dale from the last page. If she was standing next to say....Sarah Michelle Gellar. I am not sure I would even notice her. The same way if you and the C'dale guy, and I were riding together. I would be sweating your Venge. That's what I am trying to say here.

I agree with both statements. The Giant could loose the saddle bag too.

Coming from a cervelo rider, I will take that as a compliment.

Hey man don't get me wrong, Sandra is a nice looking bike. I think I going to name my new S2 Sarah when she arrives. BTW, I would only be sweating his Venge because I'm riding this for the time being. Which I still think is kinda hot for such, and old bike, one of the best Treks ever imo, and some agree, but it's no Cervelo.

Sweet.

My new addition. Built mostly from parts that were sitting in the corner of the garage (including the rare Biaach frame :lol:). I think it pretty hot, but it'd be hotter if I had some pedals that didn't clash with the color scheme.

Slap on a set of black Look's, some celeste bar tape and a celeste Fizik saddle, and you have one hot Bianchi!

No Sarah Michelle Gellar. As for the Trek. I just call it the Trekster.
