Too bad this thread has died off somewhat. Here is another entry. My new bike, which I personally think is smoking hot despite the personal bias.

Holy ***** that thing means business.
Seriously, wow.
Well, I've been working on this bike for a while. I put the catalogue picture on page 1 and a build update on page 33. Now, here it is in its current 99.9% finished form.

As a lover of red bikes, how could I not think this is hot?

It is a beautiful bike, question, you have what looks like a sub 1" drop, are you very short legged/long torso or have a very upright position? If it's the latter why would you buy a full on racing bike and put a comfort set up on it?

[/quote]It has potential, very hot frame. Dumb pedals, to little saddle to bar drop, saddle noes down, brake levers in a dumb position on bars, hole in the bar tape, one bottle cage.

I think classic steel frames with modern components are hot.
