Bontragers are only temporary until I buy a set of Fulcrum Race Zeroes/Mavic Ksyrium SL Premiums/Roval Fusee (havent decided yet).
Look at those mountains behind the bike, that's why I have a compact crankset. :thumb: You wouldnt have liked it earlier, I had the stem flipped up. Just had it flipped down today. The positioning right now is aggressive enough, I may take the spacers out little by little as I get used to the geometry. What's wrong with the handlebars? Some traditional handlebars are where it's at. What size is your bike? Edit: Get Mavic SLs.. stay OG. Rovals ride weird, Fulcrums only look good on Wiliers. |

Definitely hot - but would be hotter with a black Thomson seat post. :) Can't wait to see it in person. Orange and black should stand out and help me chase your wheel at some crits too. ;)
I hope I can get out for another crit. It's tough with school starting back up, as the kids are out of their minds at the end of the day, and I need to help. We also have a soccer practice on Thursdays :eek: |

Mountains?? C'mon man.. 53/39 with a 12-25 is just fine for mountains!

yeah - sig is a bit silly. Who's on the Storck? I rode that bike. Floppy/lotta trail on the climbing but corners and descends crazy good.
I like my waterford more |

Good point about the black Thomson. You know me though...

I would be on that Storck; and to be totally honest, that bike sucked. The brakes sucked, I snapped the chain w/in 15 minutes of taking it out. I just wasn't really happy with it.
I like my waterford more I've never ridden a Waterford but I hear they're nice. |
nice boots.
oh wait i mean moobs. err whatever... |
I love that LOOK bike with the white Cinelli Ram bar and red spokes! Other bikes, especially black ones with black wheels, they all look the same
to me. Especially those Giants and Fujis, etc. too many big logos on the frame/fork and even on the wheels. |

now I think people are intentionally trying to sabotage this thread...

Hopefully not, I find many of the bikes in the beginning hot especially your blue Giant... I have a red 2006 TCR C2 that I use for training and racing that I am thinking of upgrading with new wheels to become hotter looking :)

Lightweight Ventoux wheels, Continental GP4000 tubular tires.

The spacers were removed. 14.3 pounds with bottle cage and Speedplay Zero Titanium pedals with the AX-Lightness and Tune pieces. Also: I don't have the bike anymore, just the wheels. |

Rules for bike pictures:
1) White garage/wall backdrop. 2) Drivetrain facing forward. 3) Chain on big chainring, small cog in the back. 4) Crank arms at 6 and 9 (or 12 and 6 if using a pedal support). 5) Tire valves at 12 o'clock. How would one go about this??? :roflmao2: |
