Wow, you ride your track bike to your job at American Apparel, with a Spinergy and risers no less!

And i also just bought a new frame to replace my busted one so i have no money to afford a digital camera so i used the store one.

You must be a pretty big fan of my company to associate the brand with a few plastic bins of clothing.

carson, is the Guerciotti logo imprinted on the top of the fork or is that a sticker?

Well it is Savannah georgia, have you been to savannah? it's like a cluster**** of artschool kids on trackbikes, and the worst hipster scene I've ever seen.

You can't expect it not to affect things.

It's like the same with some friends of mine from the OC, the ability to see any sort of bigger picture is ****ed up, and the reaility around you becomes a bit of truth.

That Hoffy frame is rad, but it's screaming for more classic parts. I dig risers, but not on that frame, needs some nice steel drops.

Every single detail on that Hoffy frame is glorious. I can't believe, like, that thing actually exists.

Holy.

Moly.

Ok, I went nuts today with my camera and "heritage".
Only will post 3 pics, but many more are on my blog. http://deedubbayoo.blogspot.com/

If God rode a bike, he'd be pissed off that his wasn't even that badass.

are those zipps or shamals or what

and why does every don walker bike have zipps on it anyway

I was kind of wondering that too.

It is certainly a beautiful bike. Easily one of my favorites Don has posted. I think I might want to see it with a more traditional rim though, as deep cross section rims are not my thing. Plus, the red ones are the fastest.

highlighting your rebelliously misused brake switch?

kathrot 03-24-07 04:55 PM

in the interest of safety, you should consider adding clips & straps or going clipless.

Those are Zipp "private label" 404 Track rims, painted to match my bike by my painter. We ran short on time, otherwise he was going to tartan-o-fy them as well.

I like Zipp wheels for many reasons. They are fast, they are durable, they are light and best of all, I have an OEM account with them so I get them way cheaper than retail shops. Its always nice to have a great friend that works there as well...

Now, why do all my bikes have Zipp? Well, when exhibiting at shows, I just "borrow" them and return them when the show ends. It gives a consistent look and feel that the bikes are "made for speed and competiton". Sure, I could bling out a bike with some Velocity's with color, but that doesnt say "fast" in my book, it says I care more about how a bike looks than rides...not that my bikes dont look good, but I just think they should look FAST when on display and perform when being ridden. Does that make sense?
