The Red White & Blue CSi
Here's a quick picture of my CSi that was posted on the other forum gallery. It's just a little different from that picture with a different wheelset. This is a stock 54L from '96 or so with complete 9-speed Dura-Ace . I bought this back in '99 and didn't know much about Serotta's other than a friend who works at a LBS said they were good bikes -- I thought okay and bought it. One of the best decisions I have made.
Enjoy. Last edited by Keith A; 12-19-2005 at 09:58 AM. |

I remember that one from the last forum. It's a great lookin bike; one of my favorite paint schemes.

Thanks for the comments. I really do like this paint scheme, the only thing I would like differently is if the "Serotta" on the downtube was blue (or possibly red) instead of the just the outline.

stem angle?
Just curious, what is the angle of rise on your stem? Thanks

I would guess a 0 rise stem with maybe 3 cm or spacers?

va_rider is correct about the stem angle, it is 90° or 0° with an 11cm extension. I'm not sure on the spacers and will have to measure this one. At first, I didn't like the 90° stems, but now that I've used one for a while the traditional 73° stems seem a bit odd to me.

c'est magnifique
Had that saddle on my Bianchi Axis, during a cyclocross in third at the time (my best) the seat came off the rails I didn't know it untill I sat down after a technical section. was somewhat uncomfortable to say the least. God I was tired of standing by the end of that race.

I remember that bike, great looking ride. I'd replace bar tape with plain black and put on a cinelli R1 or A1 and it would be perfection.
