The sign says it all.

Actually though, it's really nice. Definitely not as stiff as the Fuji or caad, but not overly flexy. It soaks up the road buzz pretty well, but that might be the absolutely massive tires I have in it. The Schwalbe tires measure at 27.5mm on these rims. Carbon saddle probably helps a lot too.

Probably not gonna get pink tape. It think it would be too much pink.

i think the word youre looking for is "compliant", which is a good thing

fat tires are the way to go man, some guys on the tour are using 30s on the classic stages this year. theres really no reason not to run the fattest tires you can, it doesnt slow me down none and make my ride a lot more enjoyable

looks good man, i bet it handles like its on rails and you can ride it all day like its nothin

Stop showing off. Jeesh!

Honestly, I have to say that some of the best looking bikes on this entire message board are from this forum.

Mumonkan 07-09-15 10:29 PM

its cuz were all a bunch of weirdos.

41 cares about "training" for their next training ride, everyone in mtb forum is too busy shredding gnar, cx is hidden in race forum and is all about parts and is pretty dead too, C&V has a lot of nice bikes tho

motrheadsroadie 07-09-15 11:25 PM

for every "nice bike" on here theres got to be at least a dozen entry level frames with mismatched bars and stems. or campy mixed with shimano.

motrheadsroadie 07-09-15 11:29 PM

like, you cant hit the random bike button on pedalroom or velospace and not be grossed out.

motrheadsroadie 07-09-15 11:36 PM

i mean, i used to pedal a garbage bike around too. so whatever.

I was in Chicago Saturday (my first time ever) and was aboule to spend a good part of the day riding around. It was cold and windy and over cast and I was severely under dressed. Good times though.

I didn't get any good pics.

Fyxation Rodeo Pursuit handlebar | Retrogression

I find them comfortable and they are cheap.

I prefer the nitto rb-002 but they are only available in 26.0 clamp.

At least there was a luxurious work bench at your disposal.

Indeed! Almost more comfy than my home shop, definitely more scenic!
