This was so stupid on my part that I'm a little embarrassed to post this, but maybe it will prevent someone from making the same mistake. I drink a lot of LaCroix flavored bubble water (can you see...

2009 Cannondale Six 5

It's made from aluminum with a carbon rear triangle and carbon fork. I upgraded the seat and seatpost to save about a pound, and the brakes are now Dura Ace 7800 (not shown). Nothing special but I...

That bike looks awesome, but it would look even more awesome with blacked out brake tracks.

Why not just pick up a used rigid fork? I found one for my bike for $16 and the swap was easy and the weight reduction made a much more fun riding experience....

That makes a lot of sense. Many times I hopped on my old 3.0 Crit racer and told myself, "no sense trying to break your Strava record on the kick around the corner, it's a long ride and you need to...

If you read the old catalogs, those tapers were the result of computer modeling. The result was a lighter frame (2.8 pounds vs 3.0) and purportedly no loss of stiffness, although the 3.0 Crit frame...

It came with a pre-cut piece about four or five inches long for that purpose. I went with the figure eight wrap so I didn't need it. Believe me, $30 was a LOT for me to justify and nobody is...

I checked out the new 2020 Madone last week and was duly impressed with the bike, but when I grabbed the bars I was blown away by the downright sexy feel of the tape. I hunted some down and went for...

Got rim brakes? Do yourself a favor and give them a quick overhaul.

I had a sluggish dual pivot front caliper so I watched a couple tear down videos and went at it. The difference in feel is truly astounding. The rear seemed fine, but now that I was an expert I...

This aluminum/carbon hybrid Six must have flopped because it disapeared after one year on the market, but I think it's a great idea; the best of both worlds. It's also a mix of 105 and Ultegra. It's...

Exactly. I can't tell you how many times I got on it and said to myself I'm just going to take it easy and then ten seconds into the ride I'm like, "screw it, I'm going for it!"

1990 3.0 SR400 Criterium Series

I picked this up a couple weeks ago. It was listed on Letgo for $93.01 but I negotiated the seller down to a cool $93 even. The tires were shot and it needed a little TLC but now I ride it every day....
