BTW - if he has anything in a 54cm or 55cm, that would be even better!

Crazy EVO SAT paint finish !

I haven't ridden them yet. They are pretty light, but not what I would call first class, though you can't argue the price. The graphics on the rim are kinda chintzy as they are just stickers. The front hub spins a little like mavic before break in. The rear is gunna require some riding before I race it.
The hubs are adjustable with allens, so plus there.
Overall, for the price, I can't think of anything better. I'll let you know when I can actually ride them. (Winter in Montana)

Damn!! My pics got killed in the last server fiasco. Soooooooo here we go again (not that I ever get sick of looking at my bike)
2004 LeMond Tourmalet...105/Ultegra...all stock except for Vuelta Typhoon SPD pedals and Topeak wedge bag. I love this bike.
Oddly enough, green has never been one of my favourite colours, and I didn't like this at first but it just grew on me. $850.00 NOS

Chuck Norris has to jump around in the shower to get wet, not because he is skinny, but because the water is afraid of him.

Here's my road machine, not a 7,000 dollar bike, but I've thrashed this thing for years-training and racing. +10 on Easton aluminum frames! All Ultegra 9spd, Open Pro's always clad with Michelins of some sort.

Picked this up right when the shop opened today, 06 Sarthe with yellow Deda tape and a Thomson seat post. This is the best bike I have ever ridden, it kicks my butt.
Cheers and enjoy, Alan

I am considering Ibex, any thoughts on the brands quality? How hassle free was your transaction?

Just picked up a Lemond Tete de Course w/Dura-ace components, carbon fiber/titanium frame. Got a once in a life time deal on it and it was my size. Couldn't pass it up. Talk about smooth, effortless cycling!
First ever carbon framed bike. Its got a fantastic mix of carbon and titanium. Dura-ace is just fantastic.
