true. i mean, it's a funny joke but it's certainly a humorless reality. nothing but heart for those affected by addiction.

i don't have a problem. i have eighteen different redundant components that only slightly differ from each other for every moving part of my bike, but that doesn't mean i have a problem. you have a problem! I do what I want! The hooker just needed a ride home! I'll pay you back! Those aren't mine. I was just holding onto it for a friend.

Perhaps he's looking at the bigger picture and is going to give us a thorough review of the differences in each component.

I want an Izumi Eco in Silver, but given i'm blowing the bank ATM I decided to opt with the KMC for half the price with free shipping.
To put an old 42T 144BCD chainring on my S75's.
cause I'm too poor for a superlap.
and I got a Bianchi San Lorenzo full carbon road fork for 70 shipped off eBay.
Going to get a cheap 27.2 fork at the local bike co-op and it looks like my Leader is going to be on the road within a week.

I think you guys should reveal the 735s at the same day, so it will actually be twins.

In my opinion, my formerly morbidly disgusting turned morbid attraction of a helmet finally arrived.
Took it for a short ride and its airflow is absolutely phenomenal! I was blown away.
+1 for having a helmeted head that looks like freddy krueger's shaved scalp!

I gave up on eBay ones below MSRP for exactly that reason; I splurged and did a buy it now.... the only reason why these helmets are expensive/ inflated is catlike doesn't have a USA distributor....

People would pay top money for helmets that are extremely breathable and light. With Catlike, you feel like you're wearing nothing while you are still wearing one.

in agreement with squirrel up there. its not about the aero, or about the material, its about the ventilation.

Having said that, I love the look of the Whisper+! Sadly, Catlikes don't fit my head shape.
