Just make sure that you will look for a quality and dependable bicycle but should not be a pain in your pocket.

Ironically the bike's weight and the bike's cost in ounces of gold are exactly the same.
Yes, noice chair. Clearly pilfered from Versailles during the Vichy. You can't pedal yourself away from the holocaust, you monster.Quote:

Noice. Just above the minimum weight allowed by UCI for racing, innit?Quote:

I'm not liking your pedals, but then I'm not really a roadie. Time ATAC ftw. I'd not mind your wheels one bit, however.
Also, I'd have guessed you'd be sporting super record.
Not that Sram Red isn't several steps up from what I'm using, or anything.
I have an inflexible ankle and a corresponding collapsed arch on one side from an accident and I find that the float in the Speedplays compensate better than the Times.Otherwise I like the Times better.Quote:

Bikes don't kill people, accidents do.
Idol, lay your flesh bare and regale us with tales of your hideous accident, which plainly left you bereft of optimism and taste in bicycles. You don't have to if you don't want to, but I feel all I know of you is a muscular propensity, too much celluloid, and a stalwart refusal for all things stupid.
Let me in, or I'll blow the bloody doors off your bike to the max.
I've not only crashed in every way known to Man I'm pretty sure that I invented a few new ones.Uphill,downhill,alone,in groups,at starts, at finishes,into moving objects and stationary ones.I've even managed to crash standing still.Quote:

That taught me that basically life's a joke and at the end of the day the best you can really hope for is the company of people who make fun of your misery and a back room with some trashy furniture in it.
