MoST house brand CT

Specialized Jet womens-specific. MoST brand seatpost. *Worst seatpost I've ever used

Look KEO Sprints

compact 34/50. 12-25

My girlfriend's bike. Replacement for last year's Pinarello 3:13. The 3:13 came from the bike shop with a couple of chips in the paint. It took MONTHS to get satisfaction from Pinarello and/or the bike shop. They finally came through with this.

Nice frame

I'm always a fan of Pinarello, but the wheelset is kinda shity, other then that, everything seems alright. Especially the frame and the fork, very unique indeed! So this is your gf's bike, how tall is she? Do you have your own bike?

Yeah - my girlfriend's

Yeah - my girlfriend's pretty tall: 5'10". The Ultegra wheelset is fine for training, but they are heavy as hell. We'll both be riding 1400-gram Neuvation SL2s for Ride the Rockies this year. I'll again be on my steel/carbon mix LeMond (#8823).

only thing holding that bike

only thing holding that bike back is its wheels...not that they're BAD, but that holy shit, the bike needs wheels that are on its level

Let me get the bike paid off

Let me get the bike paid off first - then we'll think about new hoops... One comment: the MoST seatpost is a real disappointment.

what's wrong with it? and i

what's wrong with it?

and i feel ya with paying it off.
shit is pricey

This is the second

This is the second Pinarello/MoST 2-bolt seatpost she's ridden. They both are a pain to adjust to level and refuse to STAY level when she rides over bumps. By bumps I mean the stuff you'd encounter on any urban concrete trail. You can hear the pop when it lets go. She simply doesn't have the arm strength to clamp it down firm enuf. AND The powdercoating is as fragile as glass. It's not even real carbon fiber - just a cosmetic covering over aluminum.
