Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Nice wheels, really want to get a set but have yet to find a good price. Set tire badge with valve. Seat post, NOT!, never understand why folks put them on a road bike.
Cheers

The seatpost from Thomson was part of a very brief "buy amurrican" phase...its simple, and its black...what else could one desire....

I'd dig it more with black bartape (and pedals!), but still HOT!

That phrase typically isn't followed by a picture of a hot bike, but this time was close.

I'm not a big fan of the white tape either but it would be such a waste to just junk them. I think once they get dirty, I'm going to put black lizard skins on there. This bike is sweet.

Pic with Boyd tubs is a must.
Some better pics, got the race wheels on, the Campy wheels will stay on the EVO.

Ok, so here it is...



So, what do you think? I'm in the process of slowly changing things out, but it's a work-in-progress for sure. I like it.
