Just own up to it damn it. I really don't even care if they cloned it, I think its a good idea actually. Remake a $1.5k vintage track frame so its more accessible to the general public? fantastic! Deny that that's exactly what you're doing when you have no ground to stand on? No longer interested....

Well when I was in high school I swam pretty competitively, and I shaved it all for district championships. Chicks were entertained/curious about my shaved legs, so I let them touch it. And if anyone is going to make fun of you because of it, they're probably tools anyway (who won't amount to anything in life) so you shouldn't care.

Pretty much.

Now I'm thinking of finding out whether Pelizzoli can make a Leggenda road frame. I miss my Cannondales, but I want one with 130mm spacing and cable guides/stops. If not, I still want a Leggenda track frame.

There have been a few where it's been discussed but this one is the most entertaining. It starts to get good at post #35 when Superb dude comes in and "bla bla blas" everyone to death.

For the record, I pretty much sum it all up in post #54.

It's serverside, BF server's are not so healthy as of late; I've been getting the same errors as you are and pages timing out at work where I'm using a ridiculous fiberoptic connection. I've even had to retype this, because of an error.

Been noticing some creaking lately when I pull up and down on either side of my bullhorns. I tried applying some light oil to where the stem meets the bar, but the creaking still occurred. When I put pressure on the top cap with my palm, the bar didn't creak (bar and stem felt very solid, as they normally should), so I'm guessing the steerer might be the culprit and not the stem/bar. Any quick tips before I head into the shop tomorrow evening?

Edit: I should also mention that the headset's fairly stiff right now. If I lift my bike up, the front wheel will stay straight unless I push it to the left or right. Then, if I move the wheel back to center, it'll 'snap' back into place.

Your headset is likely too tight. To kill two birds with one stone, remove your stem, grease your steerer (just a little) and reinstall, being careful not to overtigthen your top cap.

I've done this two times and the creaking is starting again. Does it have anything to do with the shim inside the stem?
