I'd drop the chain quite a bit going from standard compact double (50/34). I'm upsizing to 52/38, so I probably won't have the chain drop problem...but that's okay.

Very cool, thanks.

I haven't seen every "deal" today but it seems to me that most of them are on odd women's clothing that didn't sell at the original price for a reason.

I was out most of the day, but the ones I've seen haven't been much different from the usual fare. Disappointing.

As a group, I'd say we spend some serious cash ( or credit)...

Look? Nope... (exquisite frames, too expensive for my wallet) Cool? Definitely according to my commute yesterday morning. :lol: :(

Hmm...

BF Member Otsuni is selling a brand-new nude carbon 53cm frameset in the For Sale section right now...actually, it's on eBay.

Looks like it's the same PedalForce RS Frameset they did a group buy for in Road Cycling. That's a dang sweet frame...I'd buy it, if it was my size.

Happytime 11-28-07 11:00 AM

Heh heh.

Mo said "nude"

it's a BD frame, someone bought it for the parts and built it on a better frame. That was my thinking back in the summer.


BTW, the Bianchi was a deal and a half that I couldn't pass up:p

Not in this case...I'm pretty sure Otsuni said he got the frameset brand new. It's never been built up.

Just got this from the Performance 20% sale, best L/S base layer ever

Also got one of these, now I need the bike to go with it (coming next week). My wife said she never wants to see me wearing the pointy helmet, and when she found the skin suit in the laundry, asked WTF that was :p
