The myNudies biking thread

So yeah, here's the place to discuss all cycling related stuff like types of bikes, type riding you do, biking gears, accessories, bike nerding, etc...... As I realized there are a number of blokes here who are into biking, I think it's time to make such a thread.

PS: Thanks Mr.Haga for the idea!

ok, so a bike 'this or that' question:

trek remedy7 (not too stoked about the color)


or

santa cruz heckler


obviously, if money wasn't an issue, this would be sitting in my garage right now:

remedy or heckler, the mountains would have to be the same, i'll find the mountains...
the real question here is, do i have the cash...

anyone know if there's a possibility to get the remedy7 in another color?
or is it one color/model with trek?

i'd definitely get the remedy if money isnt a big issue. it only comes in 2 colors to what i know. either black or grey/black.

have you tried riding both bikes yet, tiro? some people are fussy about the weight and components. so ya know, you need to test them out first.

I can't wait to get off the rollers and get on the roads full-time. I ride a Bianchi C2C and plan on getting into century rides this season. I've also been looking for a fixed gear to use as transportation since I'm too paranoid to lock up my road bike.
