Updated My Wheelset
Wheels and tires update to Dura-Ace 9170 C40 with Hutchinson Fusion 5 All Season on my Canyon Endurace. I had a very uneventful tubeless mounting experience.

My Giant Defy Advanced 2. I replaced the saddle with my Brooks B17 and put Continental GP 5000 TL on it. I really like this bike!

Love seeing all the various bikes on here - vintage to right off the shelf! Here's my old man ride

Always wanted an Italian steel road bike. Bought this 1990s Tommasini on Ebay. Made use of the frame, fork and bars, then built up older Ultegra parts. Really impressed with how smooth a steel bike can be.

5 Years ago I had 3 bikes in the garage...I sold one and gave the other away keeping the one I love for myself because it handles all the distances and places I go well and I love listening to the Kenda Small Block 8's sing their song....

This year's project: NOS 2002 Casati Laser frameset built up with a combination of parts on hand and what I could find on Ebay. Still some adjusting to do, but after a quick test run around the neighborhood it's a very spritely ride. I haven't weighed it, but comparing it to my other bikes I would say it comes in around 20 lbs.

Recently bought this lightly used Trek 1.5, so far it is working well.

I rebuilt my 1971 Raleigh International as an 8-speed Townie/commuter to have a sprightlier version of my venerable Sorts 3-speed, just in time to start working from home. It does see weekly use hauling groceries and is a hoot for a quick 10 miler.
