I have the flat color. Although I do have a Yeti jersey that matches the helmet.

Well, assuming Tiff's always standing there, I'll stick with the first then. It has "CF" around the gauge.

Killer frame, by the way...did you get the shoes or the frame first?!

I'm stuffed

Consumed a Carnitas Burrito and 3 roll tacos w/ guac and cheese......I'm ready for a nap

ADIBOO, that's a gorgeous bike. And gorgeous wheelset. Is that the Bontrager XXX-lite bottle cages we were discussing?

I need to pick up some bike washing accessories... mainly a couple brushes. What do y'all use?

brushes? :eek: You mean for the cassette, etc. Not on the bike, right? I use this overpriced spray that I bought from budget to gently wipe mine down with a soft cloth. The rest of that crap, I leave up to the shop to do. I'd just screw up my bike somehow. :o

Yes, mainly for the cassette, wheels, chainring, etc. If I had a nice shiny bike, I wouldn't mind taking a soft brush to that, either. But my paint is a rather soft matte black... so even a soft brush would scratch it up eventually, I think. Shiny next time. Maybe titanium. :)

I just use paper towels and water for all my cleaning needs. Cheap but effective.

voltman 10-25-06 04:07 PM

I'm tempted.

I don't like black shoes. They're narrower than Carnac/Specialized but I like them. I couldn't pass up a $100 deal. I even drove 2 hours to San Diego to get them. Who needs a ratchet with a sock liner?

I got the frame first but i've always been partial to black/blue color scheme. She rides nice too. I just need to cut the fork down a bit more.
