Simply the sexiest, most gorgeous bike I've ever seen (and I've seen some....). Everything in its right place.

Perfect, simply perfect.

Thank you all for your kind words!
Regarding the saddle it's not just a show - I actually ride this bike. As for the moment that Fizik fits me very well.

Awesome!

Submitted by benzy on 07/18/2009.

This bike is done absolutely perfect,i think the saddle suits it perfect as these wheels have a "newer look" to them (deep etc) that it definitely suits,i think a big ol saddle may make it look a bit heavy,shows off the seat post and gives it balance,its harder to see it knowing its my size and i cant get to ride it!!.......well done...

bottecchia's are swank. i want one so hard. anyhow, i think your saddle is awesome, matches the white trim and paint very nicely. i'm a fan of the low profile saddles though. nice work!
