Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Just when you thought there was no way anybody was going to say "flip it"

As a side note, is that considered a lot of seat post these days, or is that pretty much normal?

Did you get this from Bike Religion? I think that I saw you with the green wheels last Friday on the ride that leaves from PCH and does part of the food park loop. Nice bike indeed.

I myself am considering this bike. I'll get a new one over the summer. It is between this and the Addict R2.

Beautiful bike. That crankset just looks dirty though. I'd look forward to the SRM.

Since you took off the DA wheelset, you might as well ship them to me.

Yes, it's our team deal, but purchased through and built by Bike Religion, who is our shop sponsor.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

It looks better in person, but it does show dirt very easily.

The chain is now on correctly, it was painless, thanks to the new quick link. What would you know, it's quieter and shifts smoother in the rear now. Thanks again
