Peel off the wheel decals and maybe, but probably not.

I usually yap about "bikes with color" but the "shades of gray" with race wheels looks great on this frame.

It's pretty difficult to make any bike that's $4k or above not hot. I would say like 90% of the bikes I've seen that are pretty expensive ($5k+ are hot) and that proportion decreases pretty realistically with price. Is Sora hot or RedEtap hotter?

Oh there are plenty of bikes out there that fit into that range that are complete eyesores.

Whoever put up that sign was majorly confused about what a velodrome is.

Also, you scavenge for bike parts well.

I think a saddle with a black shell would be hotter, though.

Still really hot.

That's a fabric scoop saddle in the wild.

How do you like it [MENTION=342108]raisinberry777[/MENTION]?

Yep, that's the Fabric Scoop Pro Elite (base level flat version). Only done one 40km ride so far but seems reasonably nice. Appears well made and I definitely like the way the upper material is vacuum bonded to the shell. Also love the understated look of them. I was interested in trying out a dead flat saddle and it was either this, a Fizik Arione (10mm slimmer), a Specialized Toupe (seems nice, but not as understated) or the Cosine Sprint (Wiggle store brand, not many reviews of it) so it'll be interesting to see how it goes. Hoping I can finally find 'the one' out there somewhere!

The cycle track is in front of the sign. It goes around the soccer fields.

Ooh, fancy! I pictured a velodrome...but it sounds like it's just a path that you can cycle on then.

It's actually hotter on the surface of the sun than it is in it's core.

Your bike is hot, too.

Also: how do you like those tires?
