No, its a 2000 model, I think they phased that type of frame out in 2002/3. Shame, its a very light bike and feels more solid in the sprint that the black bike, the black bike draws a lot of admiring glances, but my one paltry win in an handicapped league race this year was on the trek, I can somehow get a better power transfer in the sprint, that being said the black bike can haul ass too if its in the right hands, i,e, not mine !

I like Tunney's choice but I'd change the wheels.

Nice one Tonto! I thought my ex-wife was a ball-breaker, but that must hurt on a long ride...

Have since changed the bars on the Specialized for drops. That photo was a few years back, thinking of retiring it into winter commuter duties and looking for a light steel tourer, Trojan's Surly looks very tempting.

How do you find the Specialized rib bottle cage? I was gonna buy 2 this week but they seem to have got fairly bad reviews, meant to break quite easily.
