That Ghisallo is almost as hot as it gets. If only those spacers beneath the stem were gone. How do you like those RZRs?

The Kirk is rad, perfect even. Pink and red almost never look good together like that. I think your seat bag is open 
And is that headset spacer silver, or just reflecting sun?
The Pegoretti, however, I'm not liking at all. That's the most boring paint I've ever seen from Pegoretti. The handlebar/brifter orientation (and is that 3mm Fizik tape?) is like a glamor shot of the inside of a luxury car, with a tacky seat cushion from Walmart draped over the driver's seat. The fact that the Kirk doesn't have the funky handlebar accommodations leads me to think something about the size on the Peg is wrong- top tube too long? Perspective could be screwing with me (the Kirk has a sloping top tube, right?), but the Peg looks bigger.

^ Simple, but hot.
With training wheels (OpenPro/Ultegra hubs). Won't purchase new wheels until I drop my last 20lbs. Still rides nicer than most of the newer bikes out there right now.

New tape, cables and cable housings for the new year. Can probably shorten some of the cables another 1/2", I think. Only ridden it on the trainer so far, so I'll wait until I get a few road rides in before I start cutting again.
also, I have a gold chain waiting for when this one needs replacing
