You'd have to go custom carbon surely!!! Parlee? Steelman? Who else does custom carbon (and I prefer mono to lugged)
Record kit, Fulcrum racing speed wheels, don't know if I could ever bring myself to ride a pair of lightweights!
If it were a stock bike then Merckx AVM with above kit mmmmmm

the yeti asr-sl
what makes it special? apart from weighing next to nothing, and supposedly handling like its on rails... its a yeti :D
alas, i cannot afford such a spritely beast before university goes back next year and so, in an effort to get in as many trails and dirty weekends as possible, i am purchasing its younger (and slightly more flexible) sibling, the 575.
if i could afford the asr-sl, i would get it in pink... nobody expects pink :p

I'll take Kleng's Bianchi/Campag Record and raise it one proper Celeste paintjob (because to have a Bianchi in any other colour is a sin against history and taste), but I'd also want an original 1950s Bianchi to park alongside it, ideally one of Coppi's, unrestored.
http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j226/lannes2007/bianchifglite.jpgthere's a few of these at Fitzroy Cycles, Carnegie. Also available as a frame-set only.
What's your dream bike? If you could have any bike, which would it be and what makes it special from the others? from brand to color.... let's hear about it!I have two:
1) Seven Elium SG
2) Independent Fabrication XS
Seven cycles Elium Race. Painted gloss black with yellow lightning bolts under the final layer and clear coat, to give them a ghosted look.
2007 Record.
Wheels built with Zipp 360 rims or Corima Aero (either preferably without decals) laced with aerolite spokes to 240s hubs.
Yellow ghosted circle in middle of rim section.
Oval R900 fork.
Oval Aergo bars and A900 stem. and R910 seatpost
Black Fiz;k Arione
Gold Nokon cables
Black or yellow Fiz;k bartape
Look Keo carbon pedals
Oh and Conti competitions.
Hhhmm... that is a tough one, and my thoughts change rather often on this. But it would definitely be with full Record 2007, Campagnolo Boras, and assorted doodads of similar level.
For this week I fancy these two (so hard to choose, I would rather have both):
I'm dreaming of next year's team bike... http://www.louisgarneau.com/eng/bike_catalog.asp?catalogue=VS7
A Louis Garneau Sonix 6.5 SL frame in team colours. I want to build it up with 2007 Campy parts.

Me, I'll take either an Eddy Merckx AXM/Time VXRS/LOOK 595/Colnago C50HP frameset with full Campy Record and Lightweight wheelset. Sounds about right.

wow.. now that's a cool bike! it looks like bamboo!It is bamboo. Bamboo is essentially the natural carbon fibre. Lots and lots of fibres embedded in a type of resin.
