    People keep way outbidding me on the damn ebay bikes. I think it's the store doing it.

        It just pisses me off because I want a black one but I don't want to pay more than a few bucks more than the othere colors.

          Scabzzz, I didn't realize how much I hated the stock Windsor pedals until I put the new pedals/clips I just got on. HOLY FUCK. I feel so much more in control of pedalling now, my feet are farther forward, and held SO much better now. It feels like a new bike.

          Dude, and flip that damn stem over.



          BTW, here's the specs on that blue bike:

          Frame:
          56cm Blue TR 250
          Handlebars and Stem:
          Deda Newton Pista, Thompson X2
          Fork and Headset:
          Aerus, Aerus Comp
          Front wheel:
          Zipp 404
          Rear wheel:
          Zipp 404
          Crankset and Bottom bracket:
          Campagnolo PIsta, Campagnolo Pista
          Saddle and Seat Post:
          Sella Italia SLR, Aerus Aero
          Pedals and Chain:
          Campagnolo Pro Fit, Izumi
          Cog/Gearing et cetera:
          47 x 14

              Scabzzz, bring that windsor up to phil. My friend since age 11 just came to visit this weekend after me telling him for weeks to buy a fixed. we rode BMX for 13 years together. My brothers year old windsor has the old crank set and a threaded stem, and his has big beautiful hubs, FSA cranks and theadless stem. the new windsors are beautiful. Wait till you see my shit son!!!!!

                  Dude, I love my bike, especially for the price. The new Windsors really are pretty good, you just have to change a couple things to make it more comfortable.

                    I finally won a black 55cm ebay fixie for sure. I'm 100% sure the ebay store bid against me because in all 5 auctions I won I immediately got a 2nd chance offer.

                      Those fucks. I guess I need to be patient when biding on mine.

                          That's a nice ass bike. What frame size is that? It looks a little small.

                            Thanks. :)

                            It's a bit bigger than it looks - its a 57.

                              Cool bike, James. Interesting frame, I haven't seen an arched top tube like that.
