I must say there are a LOT of smokin' rigs here. Thanks for posting. Here are my 3 contributions.

I really like this rig. you say this is your old bike, what are you riding now? this bike is pretty nice. I love the wheels, what generation are they?
Hot for sure.

First of all, its almost not fair that the photography is as hot as the bikes. :) My least favorite is the Orca. The other two show a fine taste for a build. And you know that Pinny is thought by many to be one of the hottest bikes on BF. Well done.

Can that Pinarello actually stop with those deltas on there? :eek:

Nice bikes, and nice photo work Rad. I plan to get mine in my studio over the winter. ;)

I have an assortment of aluminum rigs.

Two Bianchi's. A 2004 XL EV4 is my Weight Weenie/Hillclimb rig. A 2004 XL EV3 in full Celeste is my race rig.

I also have a 2000 Coppi Aluminum that serves a my training bike for the weekdays, and a 2002 Cannondale CAAD 6 SI that I ride to work or in bad weather.

The Ventoux's are Generation II models.

So why did you sell the Parlee?

Headtube length prevented me from getting low enough.

If it were a 53cm instead of a 55cm, I would still have it.

Hi,

All of 55/Rad's bikes are hot. Some are just hotter than others. His photo skills also help the hotness factor. :)

I know this is a joke, but I really don't understand why Deltas got this poor reputation. Mine will stop me every bit as quick as my '07 skeletons.

It is true that the pair weighs nigh on a pound.

16.02 As seen here,
16.00 if I pull the computer head and the unused screws.
Sub 16 with regular SLR and pedals
Sub 16 as configured without pedals.

Please don't hate the bike because the photog sucks. I just got those wheels on tonight. Sadly it be at least a few weeks till I see how it rides in this configuration.

Do you know why the stickers say ERIKSEN but the the top tube says ERIK SVEN? Just curious.

Since that one is my bike, yes I do know.




















Kent Eriksen built the bike and put his stickers on it. Since it's my bike and I'm not very imaginative the polished bit is my name, or the part of it that resembles Eriksen.

No carbon...no Ti.

Just some fine British steel.

EDIT: With a rack and sans tri bars, that may well be a cool commuter!

How about mine?

Warms my heart. Got a soft spot for Univegas. My first bike was a Viva Sport. I was 12 years old and picked it because it didn`t have a pie plate protector on the rear wheel! It looked just like the bikes guys were riding in the Tour. )

Add in that she is a 'powerful' woman, hot as hell!

I generally prefer my women submissive and needy, but...yeah...I`d absolutely let her sexually abuse me in the VP`s office.

Sweet looking bikes...would like to see entirety of the Storck...is it the lighting in the room that makes the Waterford appear to have a special sheen?
