Should I go with black saddle/tape, white saddle/tape, or white saddle/pink tape?

if you stay white saddle, I'd go white bar tape also. If you are gonna keep the black bar tape, I'd go black saddle.

Really, you have to ask? Well, since you introduced pink as an option....I'll suggest matching pink tape, pink saddle, and pink tires....

Oh. I thought pink tape w/ mismatched saddle was kosher :(

Yeah, I'm planning on it. Didn't really have the time/inclination to go down to the shop today.

nice Stevens! man that's a ginormous bike

I'm 6'5" most mfg "XL" frames just don't cut it. I can get away with a 61cm on a cross or track bike but most of my road bikes are 62 or 63. The Stevens is a 62 and yes it is huge. 15.7lbs without silly wheels.

Did the saddle get attacked by a shark?... were you racing in a sharknado?

Thanks Herbie. I'm happy it survived.

I think I like it. The 1st Annual Sharknado Crit.

White saddle white tape... HOTTT BTW...
I love the look of the old CR1 frames, been thinking about getting one myself but can't justify more bikes. LOL

The setup is hot, but the white line in the paint scheme is really distracting and obscures the frame angles, making this a not.

I'm considering to swop out the stem and bars to deda m35.. Only concern is whether the k edge will be able to fit the m35 bar... Anyone has any idea?

On the trainer, and went on the rollers today, as the stitches came out on Friday. Bike checked out OK, and I wanted to test it on the road. Mrs. LAJ nixed that.

I've seen some photoshops in this thread but I seem to recall there being a thread for that (photoshopping parts on bikes). If anyone knows what I'm talking about could you kindly direct me to that thread? I have searched high and low but can't find it.
