don't forget about your carbon fiber wrench so you can change a flat and save weight. but wait, you have zipp tangente dimpled tubies glued on to your dura ace hubbed 32 spoked zipp 404 track rims littered with alleycat cards, so you can't really change your flat on your way back from the bar. oh well, at least everyone will be able to watch your slow ass cruising with that massive 45x18 gearing, carbon fiber gleaming in the street light.

Is 45x18 all that massive? I say it is not.

Yes, and I think that was his point.

I wonder if you could flip Hoy's bars like a bum bike?

Pro riders won't even waste comp wheels like that on their training bikes, but you have knuckleheads using them to go down stairs and practice bunnyhops.


I think it's stupid that you give a fly F what people put on their bikes.

JoeEasy 04-02-08 05:45 PM

uh oh, someone is upset because they just get described to a t by someone who has never seen them.

andre nickatina 04-02-08 06:00 PM

sniks is a ****** and you guys are just jealous of all the vag he's getting when he's not riding his bike!!

I absolutely love this helmet. I think Theo Bos wears it.

Euros have the best helmets. All we get in America are Bells and Giros.
