heh, they just couldnt keep the downtube straight. Would look pretty ok if it was. Sometimes I wonder do the guys designing visps have internet.

I got over my bullhorn hate long time ago. They are just far more practical than straight/risers, and atleast I dont need the lower part of drop bars on my cruising fixie skiddah as the bike doesnt have clipless pedals, I'm not wearing padded pants driving it or actually never in a that much hurry anywhere anyway.

they seem really nice and tidy. I just dont like the fact that on the smaller sizes the frame starts to get lower and lower and the head angle goes down:

If I want 54-55 toptube I have to get size 51? Whats up with that. I know its c-c but anyway the small sizes don't look as nice and the front clearance could be thighter.
If I want a low and stable track frame ill buy a steamroller(or actually I dont because I already have one).

damn I love my Rab Exodus. Such a great softshell for cold autumn commuting. It is for alpine climbing so it has space for a helmet, the fabric is kinda stretchy, long arms and thight fit = great for cycling too. Great balance between breathability and waterproofness. And pretty cheap too, paid 160e.

Mash just announced their 2012 Cinelli Bolt frameset:
"Enclosed is our third look for the Cinelli MASH Bolt series. This frameset marks the return of the original Bolt geometry— preferred by some of our long distance riders and racers for its more comfortable approach. Built with the same solid Columbus Airplane construction and finished with a tonal silver top coat. The graphic palette draws its inspiration from historical Cinelli colors brought forward onto a modern street racer.
All sizes available, and ready to ship this week. Or come into the shop Saturday, and build yours right here in San Francisco. The first batch is limited in this delivery, but the bolt frame will be available throughout 2012, along with the Histogram set!"

When I clicked an australian (i think) link it took me to UK ebay. And they are sold from china so I dont think they have limitations.
