Glad you didn't get too hurt, man. In June, I lost control going downhill at over 40mph. I dislocated my hip, I broke four vertebrae, and destroyed my clavicle. There is nothing to do but recover and...

Today, I rode out on the roads for the first time since my accident. On June 4th, I crashed going over 40mph down hill. The frame is steel and came out fine. I, however, dislocated my hip by an inch,...

That's a beautiful frame! I've been wanting a Wabi for a while now. Why are you going with a heavier wheel set as opposed to a Wabi wheels?

Wow. That sucks! I hope you had the bike on your home owner's insurance or your renter's insurance, whatever your case may be. What about another Pake Rum Runner? Riding for nine months is long...

So is the very short stem. I usually like the bullhorn look but this bike looks horrible with them. You need a different stem and road bars, then it would look awesome!

I'm 5'7" with a 31" cycling inseam. I ride a 54cm road bike with a 100mm stem. It's comfortable but not an aggressive fit. I also have a 52cm frame and it fits like a glove! My position is more...

Then perhaps you should get another Bianchi Pista. If you don't want to sell it or eBay it, then perhaps you could trade it with a shop for a new Pista that you buy from them. You wouldn't get as...

I've been wearing the silver/neon green Giro Empires for over a year now. I tried several different brands and shoes but always experienced numbness. These are the only shoes my feet have been happy...

What are the components on that Bianchi? To me, that sounds like a bad trade for a few reasons, unless you are trading the road bike for the fixed gear+money. I don't ride my road bike often but...

Bullhorns are great for city riding and can be great for long distances, too. I actually find track drops comfortable but I also spend most of my time in the drops, so that's probably why. Road brake...

Do it! I've been using a C17 Carved for over three months now and it is the most comfortable saddle I've ever used. Looks good, too.

It popped on the way down at speed. I heard a loud noise and felt the tire lose pressure. I got out of the saddle and pulled on the brake. I always run a front brake and was especially grateful for...

Today, I got a flat on a long downhill going 34 mph. Scary but I was able to stop without going out of control. My rear tire (gatorskin) got slashed on a piece of metal that I didn't see until it was...

Today I rode in 32 degree weather with a 10mph wind. It's the coldest temp I've ever ridden in but I was surprisingly comfortable. Definitely better than the trainer.
