Finally posting in this thread after my upgrade. 2013 Cervelo R3. Stock for now, but it works well for me as-is. Waaaaay better than my old CAAD.

The chunky stem complements the deraillers.I still think it is a hot bike though. I am starting to really like that frame, and the shimano cranks look much better in black than silver.

All I have to say is when you name the best road bikes: Jamis, Super6 (Cannondale), Bura SL (Neil Pryde), Altramira (Fuji), Cervelo's S5, Specialized Roubaix, Bridgestone...Really? It makes me think of the song:
One of these things is not like the other, One of these things just don't belong, Can you tell which is not like the others, before i finish my song....
Obviously if you still can't pick the odd one out, you have shown us how knowledgeble and informed you are.
P.S.
It's the Bridgestone, seriously.

Doubtful, but I will try not to chuckle as I fly by that lame ole' circa 1991 Bridgestone in my Super-Sharp, Super 6 Cannondale...

That's all you can come back at me with? Just because you once saw this bike listed at 1200K, doesn't mean they are all worth that much. Put Brad Wiggins on this bike I'm sure he could make it fly....but I'm certain he would kick it over before he was caught dead on that POS.

bottom line....the bike sucks.
All I am saying is people post bikes that are worth so much and do so much more...
At the end of the day if BRIDGESTONE was so good at making bikes they wouldn't have stopped in the 90's....They wised up and went back to making tires.

So how 'bout that ignorance issue?
Also, that RB-1 is easily worth 3 grand.

While you're chuckling, everyone else will be gawking at the Bridgestone. SuperSix is a sweet bike and I almost bought one myself, but the Bridgestone is a timeless machine.

THAT MODEL (And I quote)
'This model is a special track bike, it is not equipped with front or rear brakes, so it cannot be ridden legally on public thoroughfares'
Yeah...so how bout that ignorance?
P.S. Here is the site you can find all your facts on : https://www.bscycle.co.jp/en/bridgestonebicycle_thai.pdf
read it, process it, read it again just so you're sure...then you can say something.

Wow, so i am guessing this is the moment you think I have been schooled...I mean in the amount of time it took you to google that pic, you should've been using the time spent with you reading up on the specs...

Don't jump in the middle of a conversation. 1. its rude 2. you look like an idiot because we are not talking about the RB-1. We were talking about a yellow 1991 bridgestone. That goes for about $250, or $50 at a garage sale....whatever comes first.

No, you googled the PIC.
I knew it was a track bike...I just thought it was funny that you decided to post a TRACK Bike. why not pick one of there other bikes that you can actually ride on the road? But since YOU are into googling your facts, i thought i might spare the painful 15 mins it would cause you by just sending you a link...from there do what you wish.

I'm pretty familiar with track racing.
Whats your point?
Also, some more schooling for you:
Feel free to read that there link you posted, and make sure to keep an eye out for the various road bikes they currently produce.
Congratulations, pretty sure you've lost this one.
