Sweet Carbon

February 12

I picked my bike up from the shop yesterday. My baby now has a Carbon+6061Alu Amoeba Scud handlebar and a lightweight 90 mm Amoeba Vitra stem together with a pair of mint-condition Deore shifters and a Sigma cyclocomputer.

Man that carbon handlebar looks SWEET! I just can't stop looking at it! My bike's now a 27 speeder and I'm spo close to having a decent XC bike. All I need now is a decent wheelset and a good pair of v-brakes. My present ones SUCK, BIG TIME! Anywho I know just how I can fund the new wheelset and pair of brakes.

I have one of the coolest cellular phones in the world. It's a Palm Treo 650 which is used by Marshall Flinkman (Kevin Weisman) of the series Alias. I'm a huge fan of the show. All I have to do to fund my last upgrades is to trade the Marshall phone with an Arvin Sloane (Ron Rifkin) phone which is a Motorola V3 RAZR. I'll probably have 300 big ones after the trade so I can hook my rig up with a beautiful Mavic Crossland wheelset. Another project of mine will fund my Time atac pedals + 661 SPD shoes dream. Yeah Alias is a cool show. Actually we have lots of ABC shows here and many of them are pretty sweet. Lost, House MD, Alias etc.

Lots to study...

It's a mt bike that weighs 21 pounds like my roadie. It has an all-carbon frame. He let me take it for a spin around the parking lot. Yeah, I didn't feel too embarrassed about not being able to keep up after that. Feb. 13

	tayfuryagciwrote: actually there are some pretty cheap (30$ or so) no-name carbon seatposts. but I really don't know if they're reliable. Feb. 13
	Caloi-Rider wrote: If I ever get into doing those ultra-endurance races, I'll have to convert my seatpost over to carbon fiber. Right now I'm running the risk of damaging my posterity on my cheap post. Maybe you ought to look into that endurance stuff, Tayf. You never know, marathon could be your distance. Feb. 13
	tayfuryagciwrote: MAN I KNOW I KNOW! :D I really really have to go clipless but the cheapest shoe is 100$ here and they are worthless piece of crap Shimanos! of course I can relate man ;) just kidding you know. say hi to jord :D the first time I got on the bike I said to myself: why heelllooo there what do we have here? I can't believe how much can a handlebar and stem upgrade change the handling, comfort and weight of a bcycle so much. and don't get me started about the awesome looks. Feb. 13
	Caloi-Rider wrote: Don't be sad. I been a busy guy of late, Tayf. I'm sure you can relate. Yeah, my brother (Jord) has a Gary Fisher Wahoo with a carbon-fiber handlebar. The bike is okay, but the handlebar is awesome. I couldn't believe how much more comfy that thing is. Dude, you gotta go clipless!!! Feb. 13
