Canyon/Rapha collabo bike

Bee pal, thanks for your explanation. I think I get maybe 30-40% of it.
It's quite alright. I have the same problem with Fuzz pal.

Two things: that bike looks great even though I'm a former Rapha subscriber, and even better is your username: Hank Scorpio features in my all-time fave episode of the Simpsons (You Only Move Twice, 1996) when Homer lays down perhaps the greatest Homer line:

Homer: [gasps] Tom Landry's hat, and it's autographed. "To Berman's Dry Cleaning. Best wishes, Tom Landry."
Bart: Why don't you buy it?
Homer: I can't buy that. Only management-type guys with big salaries like me can afford things like that.
[gasps]
Homer: Guys like me! I'm a guy like me!

I don't want to like it, but yea, that's slick. I think it'd look even slicker with the new whale-fin Zipps. I'm glad the geo of the Aeroad is too aggressive for me. Oh and there's also the mountain of student loan debt and a 7 week old, so $8500 bikes are out of the question. Nice to dream though! Thanks for sharing.

Hank: Hey, look at my feet.
Homer: Okay.
Hank: You like those moccasins? Look in your closet; there’s a pair for you. Don’t like them? Then neither do I! Get the hell out of here! Heh, ever see a guy say good-bye to a shoe?
Homer: Yes, once.

But there is just something a bit cringeworthy imagining a big RCC group ride with them all kitted in thier RCC kit and all on the same damn bike.

I dunno, I would see this as a perfect opportunity to stand out by showing up to ride with your mis-matched kit and round tubed lugged steel skank-wagon. vive-la-difference and all that
