Thought I'd post a "water" picture as well. Sacramento River's in the background, picture was taken in Redding.

^Bianchi will be hot with a sweeter bars, not my type of bars sadly. But other than that, it looks real great.

Wow got a grain of sand stuck in your vagina? The author's post I referenced consisted of a caret and three letters. I was curious of his reasoning... non confrontational like I was hoping he could elaborate on his previous post beyond the limited amount already given. You know encouraging discussion on all places... a discussion forum. The Nerve!

Who's the "keyboard tough guy"? Prior to today I've never seen your name or interacted with you. I've only replied in kind to a single disparaging post by you. The only thing I see is an Internet Bully who doesn't like the taste of his own medicine.
Comparing our posts, It is obvious I have indeed successfully completed grade school, Sadly I cannot really same the same for you.
shoot me a PM and I explain compound words, the difference between your and you're, and exactly how may l's are in the word a lot. You know grade school ****.
Funny I was thinking the same thing.

in the picture the shifters are high up on the bars and the saddle is almost downward tilting. maybe its the angle. I also don't like the bars themselves. a far as the wheelset....well at least its not the first gen Mavic R-Sys. rolling time bombs those.

As for the wheelset, what makes them rolling time bombs? I checked some reviews a while ago, and the primary problem was that they don't seem to stay true for very long (a problem I actually haven't had). In any case, their performance doesn't necessarily translate into aesthetic appeal, and I doubt they're either popular or unpopular enough to have established an idea of either "good" or "bad" that accompanies the sight of them.

I'll be the odd man out, and say I like the Bianchi above. IDK, but I dig those Celeste green machines. The bars are not to my liking, but it has Shimano before the cranks got ugly. I give it a 7/10, it's hot, but a few tweaks would make it into a scorching inferno.

Ahh, sorry. Was your crank a Gossamer? I nearly got one of those for a different bike before seeing the terrible reviews.

extra small sized frames are not hot, especially with a triple crank
