I think by posting those he's saying that the only interesting thing about his bike is the stay design, so it's kind of a dickish move on your guys' part to be hassling him to show the rest of his bike which apparently only serves as a frame to attach those stays to.
Don't be jerks, just move along people |

I believe it's to keep the derailleur hanger and disc brake mount secure and in line with the wheel.

^ yep. so you don't have to adjust your disc brake every time you tension the chain, and because the three bolts per side help clamp the wheel from sliding forward under lots of torque.

My 2008 Schwinn Madison inherits the Gel Flow Flite, Sette carbon post, 3T ARX Pro stem, 3T Rotundo bars and pedals off my cross bike. Saddle-to-hood drop is 5.5" (14cm) but comfortable while mashing. It was super stiff and fast on my 2.5 hour ride in 25 deg weather this morning.

oh. well, there's our answer right there.
I used to own some Nitto RB-021. When they were set parallel to the ground, my wrist were sort of, pinched, not drastically, but I don't know how else to describe it. When I pointed them down a bit, my wrists were in a more natural position with the joint bent at a lesser angle. This might be indicative of poor bike fit, but within the situation, pointing them down made the bars more comfortable. And then I let a really cute girl borrow them and she never gave them back. Damn ho's. |
that's your fault, not hers :)

Can someone give me a link to a relatively cheap (around 15-25$) saddle similar to this one except white?
I really really want to get my hands on a white seat but my lbs doesn't have any in my price range and I can't find any cheap ones online :( |
u cant find them cheap because they are white. cheap white saddles usually don't exist. and 15-20 bucks? geez,
