Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

A cross bike should never be that clean.

I'm a clean bike freak too. Well, actually, I'll clean my MTB only when it looks dirty, but the road bike gets cleaned every time.

It is propped up with a stick, which is likely photoshopped out after. In one of the shots you can see it against the crank.

What brakes are installed on that Everti? I haven't seen anything other than the Avid BB7 mechanical installed on a cross bike before. Also note that that bike has the same Bonty fork that comes on the 2007 Poprad.

My Poprad.
Very nice!

I believe the brakes are Avid Shorty 6 with Shimano rotors.

I had a 2003 Agilis and sold it to go carbon. Tried 4 different high-end carbon frames... ultimately went back to ti. I searched all over and finally found a new 2005 Agilis (last model year). I'll never get rid of this bike. NEVER!
