    A Blue? I never heard of it. Can you make out that webaddress on the stays? I'm curious to check it out. Is it aluminum with a carbon rear end??
    Looks slick. Are those your pix or the eBay pix? When do you get it?
    Would love to hear how it rides.
    Oh, inquiring minds want to know!

    Thanks ladies! Yes it's rideblue.com

    They aren't very common, but they are gorgeous. The frame is carbon tubes with aluminum lugs. (Not monocoque).

    I just told my husband that I'm going to have to look like I know what the heck I'm doing on this bike. I'm really going to work on my bike handling skills until I get it!

    It is being sent straight from the ebay seller to the person who is building it for me. They are going to do their best to get me the bike before I go on vacation on the 23rd. I want to take it with me!

    That's a GORGEOUS frame! Congratulations and enjoy her. If she were mine, I'd go with electric blue bar tape for a real pop!

    Yeah! Or, white tape, white saddle!

    Well, I know I'm boring, but it's getting black tape and a black saddle. I can always change it if it looks too blah!
