As the name of the shop in Minneapolis says, Cars-R-Coffins.
Although this thread will not get as much interest if it were about the above, let’s keep it about those magnificant 2-wheel wonders known as bicycles.
I happened into an unexpected side job that will land me a sizeable sum of easy money. I’ve been good all year so I’ll do what any good American should do, I’m gonna blow it on some crap I don’t need. Just to prove I don’t need it, at this time I have 3 vintage steel road bikes (I am likey to sell one of them soon), 1 vintage steel commuter, 1 modern stainless steel road bike and 1 modern aluminum commuter. In the past, I had an aluminum road bike with carbon stays.
What’s missing? I’m glad you noticed. I am lacking an all carbon wonder bike. Even though it is sooooo 2008, I really dig the flat black bikes,

Any other suggestions? I prefer to buy used as it saves a few bucks but I am not opposed to drooling over any 2011 models. Let’s keep them all carbon and for the road, mountain bikes do nothing for me and a carbon commuter would just be silly. On a side note, I prefer Campy but I am interested in trying SRAM and carbon wheels are likely, in a 38-50mm profile.
