Those kind of bars are ones that I find the most comfortable. I borrowed a set from a friend for a week or so, the best.

i thoguth that one post on the first page was calling the bike an SUV...ha.

anthracite blue awm here. i'm gonna throw rs4 reps on it when i decide to actually spend money on the car again.

I think it's indigo. It's a good car. I like the RS4 wheels better than the s4 wheels I have but they were only 100.00 so I bought them.

I wasn't trying to bait anyone. I've just seen so many posts on c&v about people asking questions here and getting their doors (or should I say toe straps) blown off that I wanted to check it out, and maybe see what you thought of my $45 purchase. I get it. I can tell you one thing though; the legend of the loud mouth condecenders on this forum far exceeds the actual ability they possess or maybe just what they bestowed on me. I'll stick around. I'm still hoping to see a sick Cinelli, Capo, or Corky with a white aerospoke! I like C bikes

You're not clever dude. Sorry.

Yeah man your bike kicks ass, just like the other thousand bikes identical to it.

Man, you've got me. You totally have me pegged... 8(

Cheap aluminum and made in china stickers everywhere.
I'm such a sucker... if only i'd built up mediocre bikes with garbage components, then i'd totally have a reason to start a dedicated bike thread!

But seriously, you started a pointless thread with pics of your junk builds. What did you really expect, support? Applause? There are lots of us with far more interesting bikes than yours who don't start threads about them because honestly: bikes are for riding. Pics are fun, but this thread does not need to exist. It's one thing if you have something unique you want to discuss, but come on...

And for the record, your bikes are garbage. And i don't dig ditches; i'm a system administrator.

That Cinelli stem is uuuuuuuuuuuuugly.

haywire 04-10-08 05:35 AM

how old's your daughter? can we get some pictures of her?

Probably. But of all this bike's components, it's the one that stands out as my best decision. If you do any actual riding whatsoever, especially climbing, i highly recommend a titanium stem. I've ridden both steel and aluminum stems; titanium is from now on how i connect my handlebars to my fork. Looks go right out the window once you feel how it responds to the torque of a climb or out of saddle sprint. Keep in mind, this is a bike-- not an accessory.

Yeah, I put a TTT Ti stem on my Lemond and it's stiff-as-hell. Unfortunately, the old Sakae road bars I used flex like wet noodles.

g-funk 04-10-08 11:43 AM

That is a pretty nice bike but if that's all you have then you talk way too much *****. Is it a conversion? It doesn't look like it has track dropouts, which is probably a good thing when you figure out that you are a poseur you can go back to gears. Or maybe you can pawn it and get your stuff back, I hope you don't have to sleep in there, It looks like Carl Spackler's place on Caddyshack. What's with the BMX frame on the wall? Was that from last year when you were a hardcore dirtjumper or were you a jibber? "Garbage bikes" or daily riders or bar bombers or grocery getters are a respected part of most real cyclists' quiver. I didn't see in the rules where it was inappropriate to post a picture of a bike on a bike forum. If you don't like it cool, but I suspect that many people realized what this bike was built to do and can appreciate it for that. I know I can, just as I can appreciate your mediocre attempt at a trophy bike. Mod Edit here

it's a bob jackson vigorelli. no, it's not a conversion. yes, it's a track bike. yes, you've proven to us that you have no clue what you're talking about whatsoever. is that good enough for you?
i would've taken pictures of my carbon fiber time trial bike, or my grocery bike, or my rain bike, or etc. but i didn't realize this was some kind of sad contest. now that i know it is, i'm stepping away so as not to embarass myself along with you.
i'm not going to respond to your other "insults" (the one about sleeping in my workshop is especially clever), as you obviously have insecurity issues i don't particularly care to deal with.

Peedtm 04-10-08 12:19 PM

Wow G, still sucking. Can you not tell that's a garage? Are your floors concrete?

You should know Spooki made a dozen threads about building up a grocery bike, but he didn't post it to be admired.

You don't get it.

I got 20 bucks that says in a week G-funk deletes this user name, creates a new one, and tries to be everyones buddy.

I got another 10 that says he posts in this same thread

And finally 5 bucks that when he does post, in this thread, it's to compliment spooki on his bike

your bikes are terrible, your a terrible person, your wife (i'm assuming) hates you and is sleeping around, and i bet you molest your kids. is that why you need to vent on sp00ki's bob jackson? we didnt **** up your life, the pills and drinking did. i feel bad for you man, i really do. anyone that decides to vent on bikeforums obviously has some pent up aggression and insecurity. hope you cheer up.


edit: philly is a lot better then wherever the **** annadel is.

I'll take the bet and give you a break if you send me your money now $20.00 or in a week you can send me the $35.00

SinVoz 04-10-08 01:34 PM

Nice, did you think all that stuff up on your own or are you secretly in my head. Are you going to do another edit when you think of more "funny" stuff to say. I know the attention span is short, maybe you could consider writing, or, probably more fitting, drawing your ideas on a piece of paper and then post once you have your thoughts collected. as far as Philly vs. Annadel I think 99% of the world that knows where philly and where Annadel are would agree that the armpit of the east coast doesn't hold a candle to my hood.

lotek 04-10-08 02:01 PM

Yes, I edited your posts.
As I'm feeling magnanimous we shall leave it at that.
Lets keep the personal insults down to a bare minimum.
