This is my eBay special Mercier Kilo TT with a few personalizations. I think the lens distortion makes the saddle angle look funky - in actuality, the nose is angled slightly down. I'm not changing out any more parts unless they wear out - then I'm replacing worn components with new black stuff. I may leave the crankset silver - I'm thinking about a Miche crankset & BB. This is my first "new" bike, and so far it's been a blast. I previously rode a few older steel road bikes with DT shifters and such, followed by a fixed conversion. This rides every bit as nice as my old geared roadie with a Reynolds 531 frame and Campy hubs, and it's very responsive to quick maneuvering. This is my only bicycle right now - I use it to commute, to get around town, and to shed a few pounds.
