say what



It had been awhile since I posted a pic, and too much text blog = boring. Oh yea, the tubulars showed up today. They are stretching over at the shop, glue'd (or extreme tape'd) later in the week, shakedown ride fri prbly, and then bust 'em out at bucknell. Time to venga, if you will. The blue is the basetape, and is actaully less than the picture shows. I had the tire on only partways in the pic and it wasn't centered, so you see more blue than you normally would. You get the idea though. The tubulars were pretty cool, the sidewall almost looks like a michelin p2r limited edition, it had the same sort of diagonal goldish lines on it, as you can see in the pic. smooth center, some basic grippy tread type on the side (not tread, but small dots I guess). Blue cloth basetape. Oh yea, ec90sl fork also on the way. Maybe will get here pre-break. If so, bike will prbly be sub 17 in race livery. I have a fast bike (at least it looks fast), so now I need to be equally fast.

Carbon Tubulars make scary noises.

They do carry a certain expectation of badassness, too...

Definitely let us know how they ride!
