The M doesn't have that gap.....

ah.. I think hot (but, I'm 6'4"), I think there is a bias against bigger frames, especially carbon ones... the smaller (56ish) ones seem to be the consensus ideal.

Viva the giants!

WR- Your Fuji is extremely hot. Nice attention to detail. I especially like the EC90 crank with Rotor? chain rings. How does it ride? Is the SST 3.0 the same frame as the 2.0 and 1.0?

What bars are those? I'd like to find a compact or quick bend bar that is as stiff as a Deda Newton anatomic (Cannondale 3.0 of bars..). I bought the Deda 100 but don't like it enough to buy another one for the other bike.

Pretty sure he said that was not his bike. You should ask The bike owner. RacerEx I think.

Yeah, mine is the big jungle gym bike without all the attn to detail of a master builder like RX ;)

Something different is right. Very nice KD. And welcome to BF. I always liked the classic look. It is not ALWAYS well received in the hot or not thread but we will see. Either way, Nice bike KD. I hope you are enjoying it.

Giant TCR rebuilt with 6700. Currently 10 races into 2010.

Hot, but it looks like it would be twitchy with such a steep fork angle.






Here's my new one.

Hot without a dount. Though, removing 2/3 decals per wheel might make it look a bit cleaner.

If he's Sponsored, that might not be the best suggestion. Or is that kind of thing OK? Tampering with sponsored items.

A Bob Jackson with cheap components? What's the world coming to? That bike deserves at least Ultegra. :)

Depends on head tube angle, really. My bike has a 74º head tube angle, so my fork only has a 30mm rake, and it handles nicely. Any more than that and it would be twitchy as hell. Less rake (steeper fork) means more trail, which means slower and more stable handling. Ever notice how those old school motorpacers have backwards forks? Those guys are going very fast, so they need all the stability they can get.

I say your Torelli is smokin' hawt! What model frame is that? I ride a Torelli Express that I love.

pathdoc 03-17-10 08:12 PM

Its a Spada, about 2005 or 2006 model.

Yes, but at least my asking price is reasonable, right? Don't believe - go take a closer look on Ebay!
