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

Looks like an older TST or even maybe a DEAN Costanza sans decals (some of which were made by TST).

With my White H1/OPs the bike is a hair under 16. I'd imagine low to mid 15s as she sits in the pic.

Gorgeous. I love the engraving on the Cyrene. The only thing I don't like about Merlins are the uber short head tubes = mucho amount of spacers. Other than that she's a real head tuner. Enjoy!

Here's something a little different, my eclectic Bianchi S9 Titanium, Record triple gruppo, Ksyrium ES, Nokon cables and a Brooks leather saddle.
I built it up for riding hilly centuries and cyclo-sportives. Here's a few pictures in the Beryl Burton memorial gardens near to my home in sunny England.

Great cables - I always (wrongly) thought the levers were flexing a little under braking until I fitted the Nokons, feels rock solid now.

Wow. Amazing bike. Those don't look like normal Record carbon cranks. Elaborate?

Thanks Min

They're the 2003 Record Cranks that were made for that year only I'm told. They are a rarity, and I sought them out for I wanted the weaved carbon to closely match the rest of the 06 Record group, rather than have the marbled/bowling ball 06 carbon cranks.
