^^^ Since I have the same white CAAD9 I gotta say hot. But, why'd ya go away from the white bar tape? I was thinking maybe a white/black or white/black/red splash? I'll be rewrapping my new Ergonovas soon (I reused the old white tape for fitting the brifters) and wondered what black would look like. Thanks for demoing for me :D Oh, did you swap forks?

It's a CAAD9-6 so it came with a black fork and red bar tape. The tape hadn't been installed and I prefer the Fizik microtex stuff so I went with black.

Oh, just got your PM. I ordered the bike basically unassembled and built it up with my old bike's components.

I remember seeing that bike on ebay a while back FIRC, Its definately a sweet looking bike.

OK, built this up over the winter after getting drilled by a car last August. 80 year old dude wrecked my 10 year old IF Crown Jewel, so I upgraded a bit....

Just got my ROL Race SLs today tired them up, and went out for 20....niiiiice. I'll hopefully get a pic tonight after the wife leaves. I always hear crap when I take pics of anything but the kids :D

Hot, very hot. Except for the silly-looking saddle;)

I'm still working on bar position so no, no cut steerer yet...eventually. Yes, the saddle is angled up but believe it or not that's where that E3 saddle is the most comfortable...it feels nothing like it looks.

Comments welcome.

Flat out Awesome :thumb:

Very nice! Clean classic style. I think the Flyte Team in red would look great as a saddle.
Well done.

I guess it is due to add a few more "I personally" find HOT since my last post on 5/7/09.

And finally, the last one for now. Almost posted the TCR above, but the wheels just hurt my eyes every time I look at the picture.

Thanks for including mine!

This is an older pic of my 595. It's been upgraded quite a bit since then. Stronglight Helium cranks, Selle San Marco Aspide Carbon FX saddle, 3T Egrosum Team bar/stem, Record shifters and RD, Nokon cables, LOOK Keo Ti pedals. 13.2lbs with Reynolds KOM's.

Dude how many times do we have to tell you? Its hot!

Very hot LOOK bike!
Where did you get stand?

Thanks and you can get the stand HERE.

I love bikes. I love that Indy Fab above. If I had lots of money, I think the one high end bike I would buy would be the Crown Jewel.

Very hot...

Never did post this here. Seems like i should:

Stem has been lowered about 1cm since this pic was taken.

^^ I like it. Murdered out. Very hot. W/D, not so much.

I don't mind letting you posters on this thread know that I don't appreciate the plethora of white hot bikes recently featured herein. I've got ten, count 'em, ten bikes. Each one of them is suffering from deep depression induced by an insidious inferiority complex. Do you have any idea what my monthly bills add up to for psychological counseling for my stable of rigs? Financially, you are destroying me. Before today's long ride, I had to skip over 3 bikes before I found one confident enough to face the light of day. Stop the madness! I beseech you.

Very hot De Rosa.

Foresthill - that De Rosa is pure sex.:love:

That is the heat! That's the bike that "The Killer" rides! And we all know that if it's good enough for him to ride on, it's got to be the business!

Very hot!
