Wonder if the Badboy was bought at Walmart?:D

As good ol' Bugs Bunny would say, "what a Maroon!"

That's the "stayer bike" configuration of the Bad Boy...

Lefty

That's totally weird! Those two black bikes seem virtually identical except for one being a lefty and one being a righty. I wonder if they make them differently for right and left handed people. Anyone know where you might buy something like that? Pinarello does something similar, correct, except they make only an asymmetrical version? I wonder if Pinarello ever thought of making the non-drive side beefier, or perhaps better, reversing the drive side of the bike to be on the left.

Makes......my......head......hurt.

Pretty weird. Is it a flipped photo or a flipped fork?

. . . you got me. In that OP picture it looks like the drivetrain is where it should be--on the right--and the fork is ALSO on the right.

That's why there are bike shops with skilled and qualified techs to build bikes.

There's nothing wrong with the bike, it's the new Cannondale Faceplant.

I got that from Mark's post.

Guess I'm just new at experiencing, uh, "senior moments."

That's especially frustrating since I'm only, ah, 39. Yeah, Thaaaat's it! 39!

Does that stem come with some protective gear for the pacer driver?
