I see nothing but a lot of folks with ill fitting bikes. Too much post, not enough post, too much stem, not enough stem and so on

The problem with serotta was the bike fitting

None of us are that special...and that was the issue

Great build quality, too much trust in the fitters

He could be used as an expert witness in court trials where high end bikes were at issue I'd bet.

Exclamation

It's like farting church, not a popular opinion. But...if you don't have enough seatpost to put your bike in a stand, it's too big for the user

Unpopular...but I don't care. Serotta revolutionized bike fit, and enabled some interesting options, and but there are tons of bad fits as a result

Not fair! He must take a "normal" size.

I think there's just a couple of us who could pass small frames back and forth...Angry, NHaero, Ha?

Oh, yes, this Vanilla is my all time favorite. I wish that I had the money when Jack (RIP) sold it.

[QUOTE=dan_hudson;3263176]I'll play.

One is a blast from the past - Jack Brunk's olive Vanilla road bike. There are better pics out there but this one was easy to find.
