Here is a pic from last week of my old ride along with it's newly built little brother better known as the beater bike....

Thanks for the compliments :)
No idea how much the frame alone weighs. The bike as pictured is a hair over 15lbs. For race season it will be just marginally over 6.8

If the bonty's bother you just pretend they're HED's.... because they are.

Hot; would be even better with these wheels:

Here's my Mango Moose in road set up (including rear light and pump, it's winter...):

+1 for way hot

I think Cypress is selling a bike on CL:


Bike for sale

What kind of bike? I don't know, I'm not a bike scientist. What I am though is a manly guy looking to sell his bike. This bike is made out of metal and kick ass spokes. The back reflector was taken off, but if you think that deters me from riding at night, you're way wrong. I practiced ninja training in Japan's mount Fuji for 5 years and the first rule they teach about ninja biking is that back reflectors let the enemy know where you are. Not having a rear reflector is like saying "**** YOU CAR, JUST TRY AND FIND ME". The bike says Giant on the side because it's referring to my junk, but rest assured even if you have tiny junk that Giant advertisement is going to remain right where it is. I bought this bike for 300 dollars from a retired mercenary that fought in both World War 1 and World War 2 and had his right arm bitten off by a shark in the Phillipines while stationed there as a shark handler. When he sold it to me I had to arm wrestle him for the honor to buy it. I broke his arm in 7 places when I did. He was so impressed with me he offered me to be his son but I thought that was sissy **** so I said no way. The bike has some rusted screws, but that just shows how much of a bad ass you are. Everyone knows rusted screws on a bike means that you probably drove it underwater and that's bad ass in itself. Those screws can be replaced with shiny new ones, but if you're going to go to that trouble why not just punch yourself in the balls since you're probably a dickless lizard who doesn't like to look intimidating. The bike is for men because the seat is flat or some **** and not shaped like a *****. If you like flat seated bikes you're going to love this thing because it doesn't try to penetrate your ass or anything. I've topped out at 75 miles per hour on this uphill but if you're just a regular man you'll probably top it out at 10 miles per hour. This thing is listed as a street bike which is man-code for bike tank.

The bike has 7 speeds in total:
Gear 1 - Sissy Gear
Gear 2 - Less Sissy Gear
Gear 3 - Least Sissy Gear
Gear 4 - Boy Gear
Gear 5 - Pre-teen Boy Gear
Gear 6 - Manly Gear
Gear 7 - Big Muscles Gear

I only like gear 6 and 7 to be honest.

Additionally, this tool of all immense men comes with a gigantic lock to keep it secure. The lock is the size of a bull's testicles and tells people you don't **** around with locking up your bike tank. It tells would-be-thieves "Hey *******, touch this bike and I'll appear from the bushes ready to club you with a two-by-four". Bike is for 150 OBO (and don't give me no panzy prices)

ROFL! Can you PM me the link?

So hot it burns!!

Nice bike,too bad is not an Orca.. :) those tires wont last long,they are good for racing but not for training or lots of riding.:D

How many times is that ad gonna be posted on BF.

Cool Giant :-)

You have Edge wheels. I hate you.

I can't believe this thread died out with so many new bikes being posted as of late. Get them going here..........

thanks good bump.

Too much heat! My income, and cost of living won't support me being in this thread!

Here is the Raleigh Comp. I built in 08! I have since replaced the Specialized saddle with a Fizik Arione.

Cool Giant but your rear brake housing is way too long. Shorten it so that it doesn't bend upwards and the braking will feel a lot better; just a friendly tip.

Salsa Campeon. Set up with the thraser wheels...

Nice!

I've been too busy with school to finish building this up but here's the new bike. Mentally picture some bar tape and a cut steerer and you're set.
