Officially the gayest bike ever.
Needs more cowbell, less air in the tires.
J/K Nice ride, wish I could say the same for mine these days.

you need some of that old school black and Gold shimano LX rear derailleur and shifters going on to match those rims, and pedals. ;)

the gold is good, esp since it's a rare color these days and you found something that goes with the 36 stancions, but the pink, though it isn't bad, just doesn't do it for me. i might have gone brown or silver. all your components would be my second pick, exept the brakes. i give it a 9 out of 10. now stop worring about what we thing and ride it.
BTW, taking the air out of you tires to make the BB seem lower is just weak.
:thumb: NICE!! Plus you get extra credit for the flat tires.

You dont care about what it looks like? are you joking that is quite possibly the most made up bike I have ever seen, aside from the santa claus canfield.
I would say you payed pretty close attention to what that thing looks like.

...I'm an italian distributor, we build this bike for a newspaper review, i put what i have in stock but off course we do not have a small stock...we carrie a lot of brand....
we just made up a pink bottle with standard sram/truvativ and off course formula oro brakes with halo sas wheels and reverse grip...nothing special i think...

The resolution of your computer screen blows, obviously you should go back to pinkbike and come back when you are older.

Thank you, I swear those gold lock on rings are for function only. What a ridiculous comment to say you don’t care what this bike looks like. I think it might be in GQ next month it's so gucci. :disgust:

Just ask you if you like it or not, i don't need the aprovation of anybody and i actually spend my money how i want, gold grip are same price as the black one, if it can look good is better, as i told you i have send the bike for a newspaper review so looks is also important, but i didn't choose the component for how they looks like :monkey:

I'm not telling you where to spend your money at all, it's just that you said you dont care what it looks like...that seemed almost criminal to say based on the close attention to every part matching. It is a nice bike im just saying dont make stupid comments like that when it is obvious they arent true. Go ride.

I said i don't care to much not that i don't care, my english is not good how you see so my dictionary is not so big, what i wanted to sayd is that i don't care so much to buy a x.o limited for the bikes, i just put the things that i have in stock in the shop.
I always go ride when i have time and when i like it ;-)

So you win the Idiot Asshat of the Week award. First of all, What the hell does my "screens resolution" have to do with going back to PB? Let me guess, you were recently told that so now you are striking out at the first chance you get? Kinda like a tantrum... And I'm 34, so pretty sure it's you who should stay on PB, not I.
Second, I KNOW what the Transition Pink looks like, mine is waiting to be shipped. I want to see one built up. Which brings me back to my entire post: I see no pink, as in NO PICTURE.
Here's mine:

Ihate to seem like the a$$ in this thread but the 5050's are one of the worst pedals i have ever ridden, they have an almost convex shape that just dont help your foot stick to the pedals. I sold mine after one ride and went back to the trust tioga mx's...
Just my $.02

Hey, I had some of those for 3 hours! I ended up trading them straight across for some Celinskis that are still rockin. The best beds I've been on, hands down, are the Specialized Flats! And they're gold...

Ill give it a 8 for bling,but i would rather see it nice and dirty.
How are you liking those Crank Bros 5050's
My friend has been using them for about 5 months,been all good,very smooth and good grip with the replacment pins,the stock pins dont grip at all,but something happened to the bearings the other day when doing a jump,think he crushed some,pretty easy to replace tho.

i got one of the early pink frames and they used a different color. the newer ones have a much hotter pink.
other than that, sweet looking build. what does she weigh in at?

Can someone post the pic for me(or send it to me!) in a form that my apparently low-resed, Pinkbiked ass can see? Fugging please?

My sentiments exactly. I was just curious as to how he found them but you went and screwed that up :)
PJivan
01-18-2007, 03:13 PM
i think 5050x don't worst the money...anyway if you replace the stock pin with standard pin the have good grip....but they cost almost as straitline pedals but they have less than half performance...
