Of this there can be no doubt. It has a grace which goes beyond mere angles and paint. It's the most beautiful bicycle I've ever seen, even if only virtually.

You might need the garage door of the hangar for the Stratolaunch Roc…

This bicycle is correct.

May I ask what size you ride? And where in Westchester you are? You know... just out of curiosity...

This is the best handling bike I have ever rode.

Scored this bargain on FBM. One owner. Frame is minty.

The components are going away. Complete Ultegra 9-speed triple out; Chorus 11 (minus crankset, still to come) in. Post, stem and bars will swap for Ritchey silver bits coming from Q. Not sure about the R-Sys wheels, I may keep or sell and use a set of AC350s I have.

Steel is back in the house!

Attention Paceline Serotta aficionados:

I have a call set up with Ben later this week to discuss a Springtime Serotta Studio meet/ride.

Shine up your Serottas and Stay tuned.

Hmmm, looks just my size... LMK if you decide to let it go, the purple one I have is nice looking but I like your bike's color better

I have to make the conversion first. Probably not for a while as I source a crankset.

This very early production 60cm Fierte IT was a really nice bike. Only the early ones had the straight wishbone seatstay. Later ones had the curved stays.

Kinda miss it. Rode very well.

In the roughly ten years I owned it, the fork went from Ouzo Comp, Alpha Q-Z, Reynolds Ouzo Pro Lite, Pegoretti Falz, Seven 5e, Reynolds Ouzo Pro, and Serotta F3.
