Your dream frame ?
I was looking at some Cervelo bikes at a LBS - simply beautiful.
But then LOOK has this proprietary head tube design which is in every way an improvement - it stiffer, lighter, sexier and more aerodynamic all at the same time. and it's not a tube at all. but then the rest of the LOOK frame doesn't look as elegant or aerodynamic as Cervelo. so if i won the lottery today ( other than getting both ) i don't know which one i would go for ? what do you think ? |
I would either get ANY moots, or a Giant TCR Advanced SL.
|
^^^What he said about the Giant.
Or maybe a Tarmac SL3. You don't need some boutique frame like a Look or Cervelo. |
Speedvagen. decked in Sram red and chris king.
Id like a road and a cx bike please |
If we are talking lottery money I'd probably get funky and get in line at Vanilla.
Otherwise, I really like my Litespeed so maybe a custom sized Ti. |

I'd get a Moots too, whichever one has a level toptube.
AndI'd get a vintage steel, something using Columbus SX. And I'd get a big giant house with a big pool with my initials on the bottom . . . "BD". And I'd get a big SUV and a fancy BMW. And I'd get . . . Sorry OP, I know you're thinking something carbon, but I don't believe in disposable bikes. |
I would probably get a P4 to hold me over while I commissioned a custom time trial & touring frame.
|
Custom Waterford 953 or a Lynskey Helix OS
|
Pegoretti Love #3 running complete campy record, with Campy low profile wheels. Mostly because I think the frame is just beautiful.
I would be jealous, but judging from the some 40 pictures he posted, he takes very good gare of it. I stole this from someone's flicker account http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3339/...0e11f44dd6.jpg |
Which Cervelo? I am likely going to get either a R3-SL or a S3 in the next couple of weeks but can not decide. I am leaning towards the R3-SL. If Crumpton didn't have such a long que I would get a Corsa-M.

I have short dreams as I end up buying it quickly after.
|
Something titanium and custom.
Nothing looks better than raw Ti in my opinion. Oh, and a calfee bamboo bike, just to have, I think those look very cool as well. |

Although I have less than a thousand miles on it, I like my Extralight frame a lot.
If I have a lot of money, I will get a Spectrum custom Ti. |
Amazing that in world of carbon so many replies that a steel frame is the dream frame.
Mine. Look 585 in the no longer produced tangerine color. |
why so much hate for Carbon ? because it can snap in half and u can't bend it back into shape ? or is it something else ?

It's been my dream frame since 2007 I manned up this past winter, and bought one nos. I prefer the paint on the older SLC, to the newer bikes. Now that I've been riding it quite a bit, I couldn't be happier. I am contemplating selling the Trek again, I only want to ride the Cervelo anymore. |
Serotta, Parlee, Crumpton.
Probably fly up to Serotta get the full custom. |

I'm a big fan of the Cervelo S2, and the BMC Team Machine is quickly becoming one of my favorites as well. We'll see how Hincapie does this weekend ;)

Holland custom exogrid.

I'm very happy with my Calfee, but I would like to have another bike too. For my next bike I would like something in Ti, but I don't know which one. Most stock frames will not fit me, the head tubes are too short. Kish fabricators is at the top of my list as a potential frame builder.
