All the topics around here are about Armstrong, doping or other riders that may or may not have doped. So time for a change of topic.

Best brand of bike? (No D word in this topic please!!)

BMC - What can i say. Sex appeal all over. So wish i had one.

Now your turn
 
One word, Colnago.

Good enough for Big Eddy, good enough for me.

First one, 30 years ago...

Yeah the Swiss are famous for their sex appeal! And that name B.M.C.... Bicycle Manufacturing Company soooo exotic.:p

D-word belongs in the clinic, Lord Nutstrong in HIS thread and this thread belongs in the bikes and gear section.

And Pegoretti frames are by far the best availiable.

Very sexy, impeccably finished works of art. Unfortunately, not particularly practical. My buddy is a shop owner and Pegoretti dealer. He and several of his guys have absolutely beautiful bikes, but they spend more time hanging on the wall than on the road.

I think you would be surprised by how many pros used to race on Pegoretti frames....including a certain Jan, badged as a Pini of course.

Indurain as well - AFAIK Pegoretti used to make custom frames for Pinarello back then. So it's not really one of these "pro choses something special instead of his sponsors stuff and rebadges it"-stories.

And you used my exact first post on this forum made back in march 09. I don't really care that you did but it was like i was hit with deja vu when i opened this thread.

Haha, it's a bot which randomly searched the old pages and reposted a thread in order to appear legit. I assume it did the same with the Magnus thread.
