i flatted the Hypersonic Duro tires my first day I had them. T-servage.

yeah, hypersonics are not teh jam.

ya after 5 flats I figured out they were crap

picked up a set of bullet proof bontrager race lite hard case tires...things are solid but heavy! Now I need to replace other parts of the bike to counter the added weight of the tires

its an angus, dont worry about the weight. i mean, you have deep vs and a king headset.
i have deep vs and a king headset on my angus as well, but i also don't mind that it adds a lot of weight to the bike. i would definately say go ahead on that fizik, its worth the money.

Makes me want a beer now. Did you order the pink saddle yet?

I say go bling on the levers. Like, campy carbon levers. Nothing like bling parts on a not-bling bike.

those paul levers mentioned earlier are pretty much awesome.

Awesome write up. Seconds on replacing the Hypersonic tires... I got some Vittorio Zaffiro Pro tires and they seem to be working great. Ditch the seat and get a Sella Regal... They come in pink, I think...

my first ride was pretty crazy, i did 30 miles and alot of it was downtown. i'm sure i looked like an idiot, oh well. good story, nice to see you like your bike.

this happens to me too. I stare at my bike when I get home also.

so what happened to your kid?...sounded like you got sweet beers and sake and forgot about picking up your kid

every once in awhile during the day I walk back to the storage room and stare at my bike. Before I got into bikes I did the4 same to my car.

agreed, good stuff.
