No...I didin't see the Big Sky in the '06 catalog. My shop does have an '05 on closeout, but it is too big for me. It would be mine if it was the right size.
Cheers,
Brian

Here is my "new" 2001 Lemond Poprad. I bought it to use as a commuter/beater bike. But, I've been having so much fun with it my brand new custom IF hasn't been seeing much action lately!

I've been looking for an early Zurich frame. I love my steel / carbon, but the classic ones are damned sexy, especially in that color combo.

Here's another pic with a different seatpost and saddle. I had ordered these but they hadn't come in when I assembled it on Sunday.

Here's more fuel for the fire, the bike now has a t-shirt to catch my sweat and also protect the top tube from rubbing. Every part on the bike is remarkable, very heavy duty even the race wheels, it deals with potholes like a mountain bike wheelset. The only thing I want for it is a set of yellow/black race lite tires when these wear out.

Your color choice is perfect. Love the detail on the logo. Nice.

(Notice the black "bars" behind the seat, down to the rear tire - that's carbon fiber)

I know its not expensive and flashy, but I love it! It was my first road bike and has seen some serious miles since I bought it. This is the one I'll never sell. It has too much sentimental value already.

I had one of those bikes that I would never sell, then I did, to my (at the time) wife's sister, for use in grad school. Before me and the ex-wife split up, I bought it back for what she paid me for it. It's now in storage, in horrible shape, but someday will be on the wall. Way too many miles in it from my youth to see it disappear.
It wasn't a LeMond though, but it was a bike I rode and dreamt about riding like Mr. LeMond.

Where did you get those green tires. I have been jonesing for a set of green tires for my '04 Tourmalet. Of course if they are cyclocross tires I am out of luck anyway.
Cheers,
Brian

Bought this 1999 Zurich Lemond framset on eBay and built it up with used DA8. Brought back memories of the steel Humber (made by Raleigh of England ) tourer I had as a youngster.

. What kind of stem setup do you have? Is it an adaptor?

BMIKE -- is that a Polar cadence sensor on your down tube? I have an S725X and have been thinking of getting the cadence sensor. Knowing how close I had to mount the speed sensor (high on a the same side front fork), I'm worrie about the cadence sensor.
Did you have to mount it there to get it to work with HRM?
thanks,
- tom
