A black crank would make it better I'm sure. Since I cut the steerer and removed the 3 and a half spacers from on top, the saddle to bar drop looks minimal. Can bikes in the triple digit price range be hot? :D

I like the Fuji, that's a good looking ride!

Fuji, while set up well, is a bit plain to be hot.

Its okay I can buy something hot when I'm retired 40 years from now. Until then I'll just ride/race the wheels off this thing. Reds not my color but it is the fastest :D |

the fit looks a little confusing...saddle full forward and a very long looking stem |

yes, but this Fuji as shown just isn't one of them...i'm glad you enjoy riding it, however, and you have the young legs that can overcome in the inherent slowness of the red paint job...

Pic isn't as nice, but hotter than EmilRosenberg's on the sole basis of being fully stealth.

Serious?? Interested to hear your opinion. Is it because you favor S-Work cranks or is the new Shimano crank ugly in your opinion??? I think these new 9000's are pretty hawt! Major blingage! Of course, my opinion. ;)

Its not that I think they suck. They are among the best. I'm talking strictly aesthetics. I have never liked the shimano line up. They always stick out like a sore thumb, rarely blending in with the rest of the bike. There are many other options that will give you great performance and look better IMO. when I say look better, I like sleek simplified cranks. The hollowgram chainrings are gawdy to me. functionally, they are great though.

Cdale SiSl2 with spider rings

^ Wow, really. I see what you're saying about the color of the Shimano crankset on that black S-works, but I personally much prefer the simpleness of design of the Shimano over the Spider rings. They are way too busy/overdone to me. The Shimano is well designed, imo, although I do prefer the Red crankset on Whooosh's S-works (on that particular bike it looks better)

Cdale sisl 2 cranks are my first choice but second would be sisl1 with praxis chainrings.
On the s works, I think a rotor crank would look saweet. |

i don't quite agree, i like the white accennt on the other one. don't really get the whole murdered look, hich doesn't really work imho because of the white S-works lettering.

I'm looking for it but cant find it. There is an all black trek madone that I think is on this forum that is really sexy. This trek below is an example of what I would consider Hot. There are only a handful of hot treks in this world so they are hard to find lol. I'd ride this one though
http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u...30350byov7.jpg Mine? Currently ready for gravel road crushing... http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2821/9...50512e40_c.jpg I've posted it like this before too... http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7225/7...ebe05438_c.jpg New bike in the works btw. Should be a fun build. .Chris |
