I love the Serotta Garage
I love the Serotta Garage. Some of you may have read my thread describing my desire to do away with the worry of paint scratches/chips by getting a bare titanium frame. I had come to the realization that for the price differential of a new frame/bike I could have my steel frame factory painted several times. Since I liked the fit and ride of my steel Fierte very much I was going to keep it. That was until I saw this beauty in the Serotta Garage for $1,690. I still cannot understand the rational for this low price but I am not going to complain. The fork and frame are perfect. There is not a nick/scratch/smudge anywhere to indicate that it was ever built up but Serotta assures me that it was. My LBS certified Serotta fitter fitted me for my two other bikes and confirmed that it would fit me. It looks and rides great. Keep an eye on the Serotta Garage and maybe you can find a good deal. I have not seen anything else remotely close. It pays to keep your eyes open.
A picture can be viewed here since the website will not let me upload the file again. See #24. http://forums.thepaceline.net/showth...0&page=2&pp=15 Does anyone have any suggestions for new water bottle cages? The black ones with Giant on them should probably go!

I'm very partial to this cage from Nitto, works well,looks great, sorta spendy. 2 out a 3 ain't bad though. Velo orange or Rivendell stock them.

The stainless steel King Cage is the way to go. Looks classy on all rides.
And while your at it, order the king cage ti tire levers... so nice, If you have a really tight tire going on a rim, you never pinch a tube with these. -Joe |

I've used them with no problems at all for about 5 years. The shape is not only lovely, but practical. They both hold the bottles well (I prefer the large Specialized widemouths), and allow them to be pulled out at a large angle. They're around $15 (93legend's may be cheaper). I've got five in service. Click on the links in my sig to see them all! Quote:
