a full-carbon road bike tailor-made for you!

It didn't come in steel? 

A funny thing happened to me the other day when I went to the bike shop.  I went to go pick up a part I had ordered (which BSS was quick to deliver!)   My gf had driven me there, and I only agreed to her driving me because we needed to spend time together away from my grandkids.   Anyway, she waited outside while I went in.  I wandered about for a bit looking at accessories, but took very little interest in the actual bikes.  They make them all out of carbon now.  There was nothing there made out of Reynolds 531 tubing.  Nothing with interesting lugs.   The joints between tubes on modern bikes just seem kind of soulless.  Also, they all have a ridiculous number of gears that most people will never even use. 

Am I just getting old and cranky?*

*I am just being goofy and having fun.  I am not picking a fight with the op. I really hope she finds a buyer ....

....so she can get a real steel bike!
