at long last, my fixed up red early 1980s (after 1981, before 1984) pinarello treviso, fixed up, tuned up, and ready to go.

That's a beautiful bike. It looks like the mid-90s Pinarello that one of the women I ride with has.

I got this bike for touring around Long Island, NY and the surrounding area. I know it's a bit unconventional, but it blends what I liked about the old '89 Giant Iguanna I converted for road riding (like my steel frame - albeit heavy, the Zoom Braham bars I really like, and my thumb shifters) with some of what I've been missing (a lighter frame, better components, better gearing, etc.).

2004 Bianchi Strada

Reynolds 520 DB CrMo Frame
Bianchi Carbon Fork
Sugino RD 4000T, 30/42/52T Crankset
Shimano cartridge Bottom Bracket

Shimano Tiagra Front Derailleur
SRAM X-7 9spd Rear Derailleur
Shimano HG-53 Chain

Kalloy Adjustable Rise Stem
Selle Italia Onda Sudy Saddle
RockShox Road Suspension Seat Post

Upgrades:

Zoom Fast Track Bars (lots of hand positions), (replaced Kalloy handlebar).

Suntour XC Expert Thumbshifters (see image), (replaced SRAM X-7 Shorty Shifters).
(Old School, Baby. They are so smooth and quiet... I'll trade the indexing for smooth and quite any day. Plus, I like being able to trim my front derailleur when I need it.)

Mavic Open Pro rims and Shimano Ultegra hubs (replaced Mavic CXP-22 32h rims and Shimano Tiagra hubs).

Specialized Armadillo All Condition 700x28c tires (replaced Continental Sport 1000 700x25c).

Bontrager Pedals with Toes Straps (Will move to WTB clipless included with bike once I get the bike dialed in, and get some shoes.)

Other Add-Ons:

Cateye Astrale 8 Computer
Specialized Body Geometry Bar Phat Tape
Blackburn XR1 Crossrack
Topeak Morph Pump (Road)
Topeak Medium Wedge Bag

Even though my Scattante is still the bike I dream about and I'm sure one of the reasons I love to ride so much, I found myself needing a bike to use when playing with the kids. You know something to just screw around on.

Enter my latest score. My new, urban assault vehicle. A 2003 Jamis Durango. I got it at Performance for $299.00. An 04 model was $619.00. I know the '04 has some upgrades but this is a curb jumpin', wheely ridin', cat chasin bike. I simply added some 26x1.5 slicks and voila!

"Nice one!"

Thank you Sir!

Sure, its not a top flight bike, but it is a fairly good road bike.
So far I am very happy with the performance. The best part?
Brand new I paid only $625.00

New to the forums...been lurking around for a while and finally decided to join. Anyways...here is my ride. It's not as good as some of the others here, but hopefully that will be in my future.

when you reply or post anything, all you have to do is click on Manage Attachment and then upload your picture and click close after it's finished. then it will show up. use the jpg. format.. that's the easiest way.

Hey Ronn,
Nice ride.

I love the Scattante line, and my next ride is going to be the CFR
without a doubt. My friend has one, and it is sweet.

New to road biking so my bike is new, probably only 30 miles on it so far (cyclocomputer shows up this am). '03 Marin Argenta, steel frame with carbon fork and seat stays. Shimano Tiagra. Good start and hope to build on it down the road.

I ride a Look KG 196 Full Dura Ace 9, Sigma Computer, Cosmic Tubular wheels (Vittoria Corsa CX) with Mavic hubs, Look carbon seat post, Selle San Marco seat and Look pedals.

whoa.

orguasch

with that kind of bike, you will really have to love it

Grasschopper,

Is that the crib where you put it to bed at night?

khuon

Very nice. Could you post some closeups of the headtube and fork? Also, is that a Look Adjustable Ergostem on there?

ScattMan

Well if I could wear this one out I might consider a Carbon Sattante also. I absolutely love this bike (Scat R-550). In fact I would buy a second one just to have in case something ever happened to this one... Then I guess my wife's cries of "your a freak" would be harder to fend off. I was gonna buy the R-650 and I'm sure I'd of been just as happy with it, but right now I wouldn't trade my 550 for a new anything. In fact, I'm gonna go hug my bike right now... What's that dear???

I ride a 2003 Orbea Altec carbon(rear end) frame with full ultegra and Mavic Ksyrium Elites.

Here's my road ride, a 1984 Dave Moulton with all SR Campy components, original paint, Mavic GP-4 tubs, Cinelli 1/A & Giro de Italia, Concor saddle, Benotto plastic tape, 6-speed Sachs frwl Shimano Dura Ace 8-speed chain. I use the Look pedals so I can ride with current Sidi shoes-it's too difficult to find shoes to use with cleats, toe straps/cleats.

I really enjoy the ride of the Moulton, so stable, tracks true, and absorbs road shock well. It's confidence-inspiring, a real treat.

Greetings,

I am a new rider, with no pictures of my bikes. I have a TREK 7500 Hybrid and a Giant OCR-2 which has been upgraded with 105's front and rear, plus I added a carbon seat post and am having a carbon fork installed.

hehe. Yeah, my two babies sleep together in the same room.

pogoman

Yes, that is a Look Ergostem. I will take some close up pics today.

Beutifull machine, I expect that where you live things do not rot as much as they do on the Isle of UK?
