Glad yall liked the description! I have also decided that this bike makes me want to climb hills like a little gazelle. A little black flirty gazelle. I've still gotta work on my a** for this analogy to work though....

Oh, I'd just like to drop a little weight off of it and I'm not convinced its the most comfortable option out there. For the price though, the InForm is light and quite comfy! This bike deserves a saddle w/ braided carbon rails or Ti or something.
You're right though the pedals are a bigger deal though in terms of weight and performance.
Wow, very nice! Congrats!
It is a shame the Look Elle pedals are heavy because the blue matches. The bike is lovely!

That bike screams fast. I see a Specialized ruby saddle on it (my favorite). You have awesome taste in wheels, that was my last upgrade. Very nice.
Congrats! She is beautiful. I hope you have many safe and happy miles together.
I'm ready to ditch my aluminum frame road bike that doesn't fit me for carbon. I have been *lusting* after the 09 Elle ever since the line came out. I own the black/white/pink 09 pedal. It's on my dining room table atm. All I need now is the bike itself.
I'm curious, you own a size small? How tall are you and what's you inseam? (not that I need any encouraging factors towards my lust)
Miranda, just PMed you but...
For the record, I'm 5'2 w/ a 31 inch inseam. I could have gone XS but didn't want to wait around Forever to find one...
