you are on to something there with lower profile rims, but finding gumwall tires to make those and box rims really pop, visually, is getting harder and harder!

I have a Trek 2.1 but can't find a nice clean place in my home to take a picture but here's one that'll do only my bike has 2 bontrager bottle cages (black with tiny white lettering, very minimalistic and light). I also have three spacers added as well.

Well quite a few have been added since my last post at the end of page 38. However, there is a heck of a lot of crap bikes added here too. I guess some of you confused this thread with the "what bike do you have" thread.
In any case, below are the ones I find hot:

built piece by piece by me off ebay....
Stem, saddle, seat post, handlebars, all purchased with custom fitting.
Full Dura ace purchased (7800) but bike in pics currently has Ultegra installed. Last swap will be the components....
Tossed in white tires with the SL's to "cool down" the Ti.
