They're hanging out with the North American, British, Italian, and Japanese chicks who also didn't show up for their respective threads. Apparently they thought these threads were supposed to be about bikes.

Maybe they're at http://www.chickforums.net

I'd be careful though if you go there. Apparently they have a different definition of "fixed"

KHS Aero... Nice. Marquee, is your top tube level? I have seen a few on Velospace and heard that the top tube is sloping but I just got one and the top tube is level... I'm wondering if they changed the style at some point from level to sloping top tube (mine is older than yours).

Err, that was actually welded in the U.S. It's as of 2007 that Lemond went offshore for the Fillmore. Any of the OX Platinum stuff is done in the good ol' U.S.o.F.A.(F.Y.) ...

That White Tsunami is a nice example of Silver Spokes with Black Rim/Hub.

am I seeing things or is the fuji track pro and the tsunami almost identical?

seat tube collar area is the same, tubing dimensions and styles look pretty close to dead on to me, need a better look at the drop outs and head tube

piratelove 02-09-07 10:06 PM

Yeah, I was noticing the same thing actually..

Thanks. Mine is the level top tube version. Is yours also grey?

yeah, the only real difference i can tell is the seat cluster, on the fuji the seatstays join slightly below the top tube. fuji's also got an integrated headset (which i'm actually not fond of).

but by the looks of it they're practically the same bike. wouldn't be surprised if they rolled off the same line. how you liking the tsunami?
