Monstrous. It's such a random assemblage, with parts all indifferent toward the others. Individually the parts are reasonable in their own ways, and OK, so the cages and bar tape have a sort of theme going, but they have nothing to do with the frame or anything else. That said, it's clearly working for you, so that's good....

just built this up, haven't taken any good photos yet...still need to change up the final bits of trim to match!

Y'all forgot about the "hot" part of the thread title. Great job with the "or not" tho.

U sayin my bike aint hawt?

I think it's hot.

hawt or nawt :D

Hot. :thumb:

I must be getting old (52) or it must be a millenial skillset as I could not see myself taking this shot without a catastrophic outcome moments later. :eek:

Oh, and it's hot.

it would be hot if it weren't for the graphics/color scheme.

Great bike otherwise

Black and red and white bikes are Zzzz emoji.

The rest of them...well, I didn't realize a stock bike off the LBS floor was considered hot.

Crazy talk. A stock bike can absolutely be hot.

It's a fun team bike. If everyone was riding one, I'd probably get one.

I've never found zertz to be hot.

Yup :). There is about 15 total. It is pretty cool showing up at group rides, races and pub crawls on the same bike, kit, helmet and shoes as your teammates.

If you take a closer look you will notice that it is not completely stock, it has a carbon stem :).

Jokes aside, I am going to put a quarq Dfour on it soon and some supacaz tape per team guidelines so it might be hot in your eyes then.

@lsberrios1

Your personal armada of excellent bikes as exhibited throughout this thread are a true embarrassment of riches.

Don't mind the h8ers. They're just jelly. :thumb:

Very sharp - almost sizzling, but I just can't warm up to that geometry.

Good looking bike. For me not hot because of the steer tube sticking up, and what looks to be a very long reach. Also, I like that they're trying to do some good color contrast, but there's still too much black. To me, personally, a bike should be anything but black.

I see you're exercising the "Sagan Clause" to Rule #33:

lsberrios1, I just have to ask what team are you on and do you all buy new bikes every year?

The name of the team is Giovanni's Tile Design Racing p/b Roswell Bicycles. It is a small team that me and a few friends made up for my wive's company (Giovanni's Tile Design). We are 11 racers and 5-6 ambassadors that help lead shop rides and events. Our racers are mostly cat 3 with 3 being cat4 and 1 being cat2. We have several sponsors, Roswell Bicycles, Giant and Muc Off. It's a fairly legit team for being mostly cat 3s. We are generally just good friends who like to pretend pro-racers, most of us will full time jobs in and outside of the cycling scene. We do get new bikes every year and we enjoy our TCRs. They are great racing machines, probably one of the best all rounder bikes. that being said the sponsor shop carries Specialized and I am sucker for S-Works (which I mostly own just to have badass builds that look cool, not for racing).

Here are the website to our sponsors in case anybody is interested. Not trying to advertise anything just providing more info on amateur team stuff since I find it very interesting.

You got that right :).
