Are those Biopace chain rings? (They're coming back into style, just like popped collars and boat shoes.

Actually you have a unicrown fork, so I'm assuming your's is slightly newer. I'd love to know what year mine is, too.

I got it at a bike shop in the town I work in CT. They carry time as well, and ofcoarse, a week after I buy my bike, they pick up BMC! But I love my bike, a good friend of mine works there, and he helped me put it all together.

so i just went to the bike shop and finally pulled trigger because i got a great deal. i got a new 06 specialized allez elite for 799! so after buying crankbrothers candy c pedals and some specialized sport mtb shoes, bottles/cages and a multi tool i was out the door for 1020 dollars! it was definatly worth it! i love it. ironically remembering to unclip doesnt seem to be a problem but cliping in is not comming along as quick.

what a great looking bike!
