The Official DMF Bicycle Thread

I just purchased a used Specialized Langster Fixie/SS with a Flip Flop Hub.
Its mostly stock. I bought it with straight bars and I added some clipless pedals.

I am using it to commute to and from work which is basically a 20 mile round trip.
If I am still enjoying the SS riding I will prob go with a SS mountain bike next. I
really dig that Stumpjumper 29er SS

Nice. Single Speed is the only way to go. 29ers are awesome, but the 650b is better in the dirt.

Those are some beautiful 1x1s there!  There's something downright addictive about SS & fixed riding.

Well, You told me not to say anything.    At least post his website.

OK Daryl you win 

The bike is my sons time trial bike and he and his very good friend use the wind tunnel at a F1 factory in the UK to help set riders up in an aero position, they have a web-site: drag2zero and have worked with a bike team to develop the aero aspect of the bike plus rider.
The bike in the pic is one that he built up himself and to say that he's anal is an under statement as his prep is second to non(ex WRC, WTC and F1 mechanic) and when he brought it home I picked it up and couldn't believe how light it was, it seems we both have a carbon fetish  .

I painted a Cervelo P3 for a customer once.

It was light.

I just told a friend I'd do this ride with her in a little under a month:

Sedona Big Friggin Loop

59.9 miles, 11K+ of climbing.

I am an idiot.

Geoff asked me to post these pictures of his monkey bike.

nate,

funny thing is that the p3 is not what you would consider a light bicycle frame either.  its close to being light but nowhere near as light as you can get.

I'm pissed off at Salsa Cycles.  That is all.
