I agree. It’s a nice looking bike; sharp setup, appealing colors, thoughtful presentation, etc. Somehow, the grand total is kind of bland.

My latest money pit. Just finished the build this weekend, and it rides amazing. Very light and stiff. Di2 is superb.

Up for your consideration is my old diamondback, a 2012 Podium 7. I posted this a few years back after I finished putting it together, and it's undergone quite a few changes since. It doesn't get...

Nice - I didn't realize diamondback made road bikes back then, always thought they just made BMX and mountain bikes. From the paint job, I'm guessing that was produced back when Miami Vice was on...
