    Momentary Bike Lust

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I don't need this bike. I just want it. Just a little casual affair... nothing serious. Simple lust.

    Next time I win the lotto, Flossie needs a triple. (Which all told will probably cost as much as this Kona Smoke!)

    But.... I don't have a fat-tire bike... and the Smoke is steel... and it's a real purty shade of blue...

    Y'all got any bike lusts you want to confess? (and pictures or links, please, so we can share!)

    de rosa

    Well... although I luuuurve the bikes I have... and I know this would not be the 'best' bike to race on... I still want one... and probably in the carbon black, although the red/white is lovely too...

    I posted about these bikes when I first arrived here at TE... and I am still drooling...

    All the bikes you linked to are gorgeous and lustworthy.

    Right now, if I had money to spend and knew it would fit, I'd go for a Rivendell in the Coleman green, or yellow. I have no idea which Rivendell.

    A beauty.

    Only have to lose 55 more pounds until I get to go tri bike shopping.
