Do work!

So im tired of my "raw" paint scheme, any color suggestions? Im buyin a set of V's this winter so thatll be color coordinated eventually.

Also looking for a solid cheap square taper crankset. Itd be cool if it was older but w/e. Looking for something with anywhere from 38-42t chain wheel. Anybody got one?

I picked some new shit today... I bought the wheelset from a new Bianchi Pista. Some guy bought the bike and then put another 1k into it so I took his stock wheels. They go with the old frame really well and they're so much lighter. It came with a 17t cog so now I have like a million skid patches... (52/17 ratio). Have I said how much I love this bike before?

Breast Cancer awareness FTW!



Holy fuck, this fork is SO LIGHT. It made the front end of my bike feel totally different, and it took so much sting out of little bumps in the road.

Long live OCLV carbon fiber.

So I want to change out my crank or chainring; anyone have some good recommendations? I am currently using a 46t but was wondering if a 50t is a bit much; I'm such a 17t freewheel.

I like to order from nashbar; am I able to use a 'road' crank and remove the second chainring? Or is that a bad idea.

Hate to burst your bubble because the wheels look really nice..
But they are pieces of shit. I had some on one of my old conversion bikes, and man they got destroyed quick. if you're not hard on them, dont worry about it, but be easy on em.
