    Bad. Shallow. Gimme a can of green Rust-o-leum and I'll transform your Specialized into a rolling green monster-piece.

    What the heck do they do?? What's to be gained from these tube shapes. Just cuz they look cool, doesn't mean they actually DO anything useful. Before you go trotting off to locales distant, be sure the frame has some advantage - performance-wise - over what you currently have. (Besides...you'll need SOME rationalization before you go burning the fossil fuels, right??)
    Well, Miss Custom Seven, you're a fine one to talk!

    Kalidurga wants more and better gears and new rims (see original post) so if she's putting that much money into her Tricross, she's thinking why not just get a new bike. We need to be enablers. Got it?

    Oh, no...yet another bike to lust after...I don't need this!

    I actually think I'd like to try out a Salsa Casseroll. I think it would be a great commuter bike. But then again, there's that Surly Long Haul Trucker...good thing I'm totally broke right now! (Not that that stops many of us!)
