I finally, after working here a year, got me a bike today. I got it for just riding around on the paths and around town. I think I may start riding to work once a week as well starting next week.

Here's the link.

Watcha think?

Where do I sit?

It's very nice.

Looks cool. I need a new bike or at least need to fix up the one I have. I hate the colors on mine though.

How much does one of these bikes go for these days?

This one retails for about $1200. But I did not pay that.

I'm guessing that one would be in the $800-$1000 range.

That's cooler than I was picturing, Buster.


And I thought you hated parody threads.

Wow, that's pretty pricey. You know how many CDs I can buy with that kind of money.

Thread should really be called DAT DISCOUNT.

Why do I get the feeling that Busty stole the bike.

"with discounts like these, who NEEDS to steal em?"


I'll be here all week folks.

nice bike, Busty... don't forget to wear a helmet (I saw your helmet-less photo on the obner flickr page). Pretty cool to see this, as I just sat down after riding my bike today!

Sweet. Have you had disc brakes previously, or is this yr first foray into them? Is that a coffee mug?

Dig it. I'm thinking about getting a slightly larger XO-1, and giving mine to Deena.

Thoughts?

What made you go with the Soho?

very nice.
i want a new bike.

Aluminum is nice but I found it dings really easily. If this is gonna be a street beater/commuter may I suggest:

Singlespeed though, but really if you are just cruisin' downtown do you need more? Good price too.

Thinking about this.

fuck, in Boulder only, no shipping.

Bastards.

Coincidentally, I just saw dat bike. Was on the way home, saw Busty and the first mate filling up her tires at a bike shop air hose.

It's tight. It looks even cooler in person. Stout fork, discs, 'trager headset, kickass race wheels... jealous. Not too heavy, yet not too fragile.

i am buying a bike this week. so many places to get bikes from in this town...

I know. We have an absolute glut of bike shops.

a good friend of mine works at erik's, and i'm going to stop by there after work tonight to talk to him about what i want. this is good because i know absolutely nothing about bikes and i'm feeling quite overwhelmed.

man, that just made my day.

I've never had disc brakes, or a decent bike for that matter.

It is indeed a coffee mug. It comes with it. Too bad I don't drink the stuff.

Just got back from riding around the lake. It was soooo awesome to do something outside besides running.

Best purchase in a few years no doubt.

That's a great bike from what I hear. I was waiting and waiting for these guys to start producing the Lemond Poprad Disc, but they keep pushing it back time and time again. So I just said fuck it and got the next best thing for me.

I would've gotten the XO-1 but I don't like the color that much.
