maybe but in my world "fage" is a popular unstrained greek yogurt- thats what the soccer moms call it- it pronounced fah-yeh much like a gyro is pronounced yhee-ro if ya wanna get specific if they wanted to say ***** than spell it correctly: f.a.g.g.y.- the original humor intended in this situation is totally lost on me at this point

That Tommasini has sealed the deal; no more funky colored tires for me anymore. I'm only mounting gumwalls from now on.

Jesus, this bike has it all. Tight clearances, old school classy stem, nice paint and a chrome fork.

On closer look though, it appears to be some sort of cheap Walmart knockoff track bike that will need to be disposed of immediate... I'll do you a favor, you can just ship it to my house, k :D

Awesome bikes. Great job on the conversion, and that park bike makes me want to go break some limbs :D

Those Somax wheels will look a zillion times better if you take off the decals though.

beard 03-11-07 02:56 PM

ty and ty - yea didnt even think about taking those decals off till you said something. good call. i'm working on an old daccordi frame atm too its a 53cm TT frame - might keep it a TT cause i got some nice tube shifters for it. if not - i'll be posting!

make sure you heat em up with a hairdryer otherwise youll get nasty nasty residue that you cant clean off. ever.

mdmbkr 03-11-07 10:17 PM

WD40 on a paper towel can get sticker residue off. Then use dishsoap+water to get the oil off.

Rattlebag 03-12-07 02:13 AM

nah, the snake gets the soapy water off. Then you need the mongoose.

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly...

I normally don't like pink bikes but yours looks really good. Props.
