    To disable ads, please log-in.

    last night i went to the LBS to pay off the rest of the bill and bring her home! im still getting used to these seattle hills . i even like the saddle(had a 4-5 mile ride home in jeans) no discomfort at all.unfortunately, its cold and rainy out.i cant wait till the weather clears so i can get out for a nice long ride.
    this is the one i got: http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCBkModel.jsp?spid=32300

    That is a nice, sweet ride. Lucky you for getting a '08! I'm counting the days 'til our LBS gets the '08's.

    Very nice bike. Congrats
