Nice form.

The Ritte is the same frameset as a Pedal Force CG1.....but you buy it mainly for that HOT paintjob.

I think that they also have some kind of crash replacement policy, no?

I had to do a "double take. Was looking for the brake calipers, then noticed the discs.
I vote Hot, since I have a soft spot for CXr's.
Took my CX/tank out for a spin/recovery ride today.

I usually don't like the Specialized arched top tube, but the colors on your bike really look great... conditional HOT, but only if you remove the 300 yellow warning stickers!!! :)

I'll play with my first post. Got it about 3 years ago as my first entry-level roadie. Been racing it for the past 4 months now.

I like it too. And adding to add, slammed and negative rise stem (-10d?). And great photo staging. Interested in camera settings too.
