rear one has a longer cable ;)

that "learn to ride' post was just dumb from start to finish. ignore it. 190 isn't huge and you don't need any special "heavyweight" type bike, even if such a thing existed. you don't need a riser stem, you don't need 36 spoke wheels. just buy the bike you like and have at it

you could cut it in half

buy my bianchi giro and don't ride it. voila - stationary bike!

anyone know anything about these? they're no longer in business and someone once intimated to me that they used to be airborne's frame-maker. they used to make cheapy straight-guage 3/2.5 ti framesets. anyone got any more information?

dude wtf is xmast???

i bought an 04 giro about a month ago. i hadn't ridden road in about three years and my last bike was a custom build (cheapy ti frame and good parts - dura etc) which i loved. bought the giro because i wanted to get back in to road riding for fitness and i thought it seemed decent. and it is...

plus i've left all my information on there, explained that photos are available of ANY PART of the bike in detail (left my digital camera at work over the holiday but can go get it for anyone interested), and have a 100% feedback record of over 100 transactions on ebay. what's wrong with that? i...

yeah HTs i would guess are compulsory, and i guess rigid forks have to be part of it too. ps glad to hear it lockstah ;)

circlips and a coiled spring. real ***** to get the clip to stay holding the spring as you remove the finger that's holding it. i can't remeber how i did it cause it was about three years ago but i think i used a knife blade or seomething flat to hold the clip in place until the cover was near...

/\ zzzzzzzzzzz :rolleyes: lol el ingles did you really expect anyone to agree with you on this board? it's not about skill here dude. it's about shaving your legs and riding a pinarello. congrats to your man though. but i have a question: is that set-up legal for cyclocross? sounds more...

lol. (sorry) BUT to be constructive… i ****ed up once and accidentally took an sti lever apart (i thought i was undoing a different allen bolt, not the main assembly one), and though it was a **** to get back together, because the springs are tightly coiled etc etc, i did it after about an hour...

i'm interested that you find too much weight being placed on the web between the thumb and finger. when i ride the heel of my hand takes the weight and that is placed on the curved part of the top of the bar and the thumb and forefinger wrap either side of the hoods. but truly it sounds far more...
