Socal Cycle Chic






I love the reverse mounted E post on this Look frame. Nothing says, "I bought way more bike than I deserve", like mounting your custom made uber expensive integrated seat post backwards.

That and the Look needs to have its bar tape changed. Really two years max with white tape.

The couple in the first and second photos also look like they have more bike than they deserve. Her hands in the second photo drive me nuts the more I look. his posture makes me think he's going to fart.

...ah yes...so-cal beach bike culture...cruisin', hangin' & checkin' it all out...i can dig that...

...blue dawn...no, that's not the name of a movie, it's what that look needs to have used on it's white bar tape...blue dawn dish washing soap...

...maybe the rider thinks dirty bar tape gives him "street cred" but that back asswards seatpost screams "ignorant street crud"...that is just so fucking sad on a bike of that caliber...

...oh, btw, in regard to the last post...got to try the new electronic shifting on the local shimano reps bike...meh (i never use that term), i'm underwhelmed...i realize it's the wave of the future but it's a wave i won't be riding...
...i just feel like "why ???...what does it really offer me as a serious but nonetheless recreational rider ???"...

...now you kids get off my lawn !!!...
