I had a 2003 Agilis and sold it to go carbon. Tried 4 different high-end carbon frames... ultimately went back to ti. I searched all over and finally found a new 2005 Agilis (last model year). I'll never get rid of this bike. NEVER!
Your Agilis is very nice... My mistake, it is the Merlin Magia that I was thinking of that I dearly lusted after...
This is Mantis' Magia that I have lusted after.. I almost had one like it (deal fell through)

Cool another Ti with Topolino's. I "only" weigh 170 or so and I love them. Too bad everyone can't try them out.

Hi, I've been lurking on the forum here for a while and just found this thread. It seemed to me that this thread could use a little historical perspective, and really can't be complete without at least one pic of the bike that started it all over 30 years ago. So here's a little old school Ti, at least 30K miles and the frame still looks as good as it did the day I bought it.
