Picked up this '02 Allez off of CraigsList. It was pretty neglected. Cleaned it thoroughly, stripped off the lock, reflectors, and wired computer. Tuned it up with my neighbor's assistance (he's a bike mechanic). Purchased and installed new tires, tubes, saddle, pedals, bar tape, bottle cages and aero bars. Thinking I'm going to go with white bar tape come Spring.

Here's mine. Been a few changes. The newer pic has the mid cage Ultegra derailleur on it that I put on for a particular ride, repaired DA one will soon be back on.

This is my late 80's Gardin road bike. First three pics are the stock components on it. This is my favourite ride.

This bike has been good to me. I have upgraded the parts as they wore out. So far Clark brake pads, Fizik gel and bar tape, Bontrager E3 Affinity saddle, Shimano 105 quick release skewers, and Bontrager Node bike computer.

The day I brought it home in May, 2007. It wasn't sorted out at all, but posed for photos.
Now.
