New Road Bike Porn!
Litespeed stopped by today with a few new toys to show us....mmmmmmm...I like Ti, just not in a single speed MTB format
 The 1st is the new yet to be released Icon, sexy white paint job with matching white Easton fork and the next 2 are the Archon in Blue...extremely sexy mix of 6/4 3/2.5 Ti. I am going to "borrow" the Archon for a bit so I will see how it stacks up against my Lynskey 310R. They will be releasing a CX specific rig too that will be debuted at Interbike with their superstar rider Geoff Kabush, can't wait to get to Vegas

I like that blue Archon. I know nothing about road bikes, how much does one of these things go for?

I'm strickly a carbon man, but those Ti bikes really get my attention. I guess I'm going to have to get one, one of these days. Quote:

Does this count as Bike Porn?
It only cost about $12,500 (or is discounted with the purchase of one of their $300K plus
 cars. All hand built and tailored to the purchaser. http://www.spykercars.com/?pag=20&jaar=2005&nid=99 Who wants to go in on one?!  |
