That's a fucking SICK bike, TJ. Get that frame, if it's cheap enough.

And my bad about the Kanye rant, I just can't stand that guy.

Something about the geometry of this bike just gets me, I love it:



And Langsters are the fucking bomb. I think this is going to be my next bike:

[lowlightbw]

they have a sloping top tube for comfort. not a true track geometry, but very nice to ride everyday.

Exactly, they are more or a road frame than a track frame.

I love that KHS frame, not sure why they didn't just make the downtube straight though, it's not like it's really needed for wheel clearance.

While I agree with you, check out how far that wheel is in the drop outs. It could come in A LOT further

Sorry to hear about your loss John.

My friend's girlfriend just got hit by a car at ASU the other day on her bike. She thinks they were high/tweaking, and didn't even get out of the car to say, "You ok?" She half-nodded and they drove away. Pricks.

[240trainee]

Yea, happened to a friend of mine, he got pinched by the car between the curb and car at ~20mph and flipped off the bike, car stopped enough to ask if he was ok, he nodded slightly, not knowing what was going on, and the guy took off.

Ugh, I need a different Stem. I've got an Origin 8 stem, and when I point it down, it's on the low side, and when it's up it's too high.

hmmmmm.

I'll think of something.

I think I'm gonna put my 123 bars back on, flats are stupid.

I think it's a lame-o art peice. CRASS rear wheel is odd.

[aproy]

btw; seriously if anyone sees any 4 door 5 sp e30's there please leave notes on them with my number! (716) 725-5366. I will seriously drive down there with cash!

btw, u-lock or kryptonite chain are the way to go

mine is still for sale. hop skip and a jump from buffalo...

theres a for sale thread in the cars for sale forum. come get it.

[ColdAccord]

you car has been considered, I just don't have the money to pay that for a db car and still have enough left over for euro bumpers. I don't want to dip into my touring-needs-an-s52 fund

The Crass rear disk wheel is badass. I used to love them back in high school. :D

So you guys think id be better of converting an older road bike or buying mercier kilo tt?

I have no problem building a bike either. I built a few already and used to work at a bike shop...

I'm going to build a bike next time. The convenience of buying a pre-built is nice, you just slap it together and go.

But building one is so much more personal, you get to customize every aspect of it.

[So Live]

This is true but im broke haha and the $400 to your door Mercier is appealing.

I know how it feels though, i built my bmx bike from the ground up.
