That Poprad is sweet. What's it pushed back to now?

The XO-1 is great, I got it for a song on ebay, $430 plus shipping, but it's a 52 cm frame, which isn't horrible, I make great time on it. I couldn't pass it up at that price, and from what I gathered, alot of people get a cross bike a couple cm smaller than what they usually ride.

I'm also looking at that Bianchi Axis.

That looks sweet, Buster.

Fiance wants me to get a bike so we can ride together.

My response: "I got us the gym membership. Babysteps."

It's pushed back to the end of May I think now. Not sure what the deal is. The regular non-disc has been available since like Feb. Oh well. Yeah you can't pass that kind of price up dude. Good buy indeed.

this is the bike i ended up getting:



specialized sequoia elite. it's awesome.

NICE! I approve of that, which I'm sure means you can finally let that breath out.

I'm jealous.

yeah, that's more my speed. Bet that fucker hauls some serious ass.

And by that I don't mean that you're fat, or that you've got a serious case of ass, I mean the bike is built for speed.

Fickerson has a nice can.

and Dri's got nice cans.

Why are both tits and asses referred to as cans? Cause neither bears any resemblance to any kind of actual can I've seen.

Ours is indeed a mysterious universe.

i know, thank god! i'm not picking it up until next week because they're adding a few upgrades, but i can't wait to get out on it. with my nice can.

ahh, cans.

Narcissist.

maybe that should read

nARSE ASSist.

I don't think it was just booze you drank last night. More like windex or horse pheromones or something. That, or Monty cracked your password.

but is it a sledgehammer?

I just did a mini-upgrade to a TREK 830 off ebay not too long ago, but the tires are waaaaaaaaaay too small...Therefore, haven't been riding as often as I had hoped.

Wish I could actually afford new bikes instead of pickin' em up off the scrap heap...

nothing wrong with the old 830's. Steel frame mtb'er, right? Solid platform from which to build.

Tires are CHEAP. PM derris if you're desperate for insider advice.

I'm guessing you'd get an allen wrench out, take the seat off and then sit on the pole but that's just a guess.

Best upgrade I ever made to a bike is the Minute 2:00 fork I picked up up on clearance from Jenson last fall.

It's got the SPV shit, which I never thought I cared too much about for FRONT shocks, but damn, it made my hardtail a new bike. Not just more efficient in the ower transfer but CONSIDERABLY more solid in the decents than my Marzoochi, which was a pretty decent fork to begin with (until I left bike on roof-rack and pulled into garage one day).

BTW nice bikes busty & fickerson
