While it may not be kosher, I've always loved the rainbow stripes. Goodness knows I haven't earned them. I actually have the 2 sizes of the WCS Team Toupe; I'm using the smaller one, although I'm still not sure which one is better.

Total shill, and proud of it.... Just brought it home yesterday. Did a quick 15 miles this evening, feels great. Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

I agree. I have a Scattante (selling it though) and they do ride very very nicley for the price. I feel that its lame to have tape over the name, they're good frames.

Thank you for the lesson in sensitivity. But since Steaktaco took it in the spirit in which it was meant (witness the self-deprecating mention of having to ask my boyfriend how to post a pic and the smiley face), I think everyone's feelings are OK. BUT, STEAKTACO I APOLOGIZE IF I OFFENDED YOU.
Now, on to the offending pics that caused the insensitive name-calling. The boyfriend came thru-my 2008Orbea Diva-a women's bike, ridden by a woman.

SUPER hot bike, that photo doesn't do it justice, you should be proud.

1989 Team Miyata
Here is my finally completed 1989 Team Miyata. The frame is a 58cm (that or 60) made of STB or spline triple butted steel. The group consists of mostly Ultegra and Ultegra SL, with a 600 crankset and headset, Brooks B17 Champion Special saddle, Kalloy post (need to replace), Araya front rim laced to a Shimano Exage Sport hub and Mavic Aksium rear wheel, and finally SR bars with Serfas tape and Shimano DA bars and 9 speed downtube shifters.
It's really fun.
Comments welcome.
PS I know about the valves not being perpendicular to the ground, but I'm not going to retake the pictures.

Oh Canada...It really is a small world...
Hey was that bike in Woodcock Cycles the other day (maybe 3 weeks ago-ish) sitting in the area where they do the fittings with an uncut-steer tube? I was in there one day with my buddy and I stopped when i saw that bike and admired it for awhile. If that wasn't yours, then it looked exactly like yours.
