Nice Bike!
-
Cove Handjob. all XT stuff, Mavic wheels, Ritchey, KORE, Salsa accessories...Hard Tail all the way...and for less than a grand!
-
Cove's have ended up being nice bikes. Stout too. It's hard to kill them. I feel disloyal giving another bike props, but heh, the Heckler will forgive me (I hope!). Ride on.
K. Thanks hoho. I just wish my skills would do the bike justice.

Road; Look KG381i in bare carbon finish, carbon EVERYTHING, Dura-Ace 10sp, Chris King hubs/Open Pro rims/DT Revolution spokes. I like the look of carbon. 🙂
Mountain; Cannondale Scalpel, full XTR w/ hyd discs, Lefty ELO fork, Crossmax UST wheels
-
Rek,
Is your little buddy flipping us off?! I don't know if I am offended or in love! Very cool.;-)K.

Carbon Carbon CARBON!!!

Hmm it does look a little like that, doesn't it 🙂 I think he's putting his index finger in the air or something.
I really should change it a bit as I use the same one on (most) all the forums 😉
-
Colnago C50. Full Record. Campy Bora wheels.
-
Pretty much what I have but with better components:
M1 for offroad [BoXXers, XTR, Hope, etc.]
C4 Joker for onroad [Corima disc, H3 front, Record, Vision Tech, etc.]
And one of these..... http://www.c4carbon.com/inglese/ciclismo/dett_bici6.htm -
Same here - pretty hard to improve on my Trek Y-Foil w/Chorus group. Maybe Campy Bora or Zipp 909/404 wheels... Synapsi handlebars... A couple of plane tickets so I could tour the Alps for the terrific hillclimbs, and then tour Holland for the terrific coffee and beer.
-
Frame - Almost anything Carbon
G/Set - Full Campy Record
Wheels - Mavic Ksyriums SSL -
Litespeed...no...wait... Merlin...no...wait.. Titus... no wait...Colnago...no wait.... Lemond Ti.... no wait...Waterford...no wait... Edge...no wait...Serotta...no wait...Aegis...no wait Ellsworth...no wait...Bianchi...no wait...Moser...no wait...Ritchey...no wait... De Rosa.........

If cost was not an issue, why couldn't you have them all? 😉 -

Do you have a once off unlimited supply or do you have it forever? Because you'll have to replace parts sometime and insurance is also a must.
My choice would be a Carrera Pitbull with Chorus group and FIR Galaxium wheels. Not to over the top but still affordable.
