[Yo Sake]

<p> </p>
<p>I am glad that I didn't have to the keep the tree until March.  Meet my new ride, it is gorgeous!!  The setup person at LBS spent good 30-45min to fit me on this by adjusting the seat, stem, etc., and the crazily long handlebar gut shortened to my liking.  I can't wait to take it to the trail.  Unfortunately, I don't have any stud tires and am not quite crazy enough to hit the trail even I had them with snow/ice.  I don't want to ride it on the over-salted roads either.  So, it will just sits prettily in my living room for another who knows how long.  The colors are really cool - kind of smoky silver and red.   </p>

<p>Sweet!  I can't wait to read your RRs of smoking even more people now that you have your own ride.</p>

<p>Wait!  You need to take those reflectors off the wheels before you go to the trail!    Nice bike!</p>

<p>That's a nice bike, those look like good wheels too.  Are you going to run tubeless?  If those wheels are built without eyelet holes you can mount a UST tire directly without a tube and add some sealant so you can run very low pressuress and have most small holes self seal while you are riding.  It's kind of a bear wrestling the tires on and mounting them, but the system works well and most races have adopted it, i'm using it w/ shimano wheels on my geared bike and the front tire on my single speed, I can't get the back to seal up so i throw a tube in it.  Specialized seems to spec useless tires on their new bikes.</p>

<p>I love the new hydro brakes, i want them on my cross bike.</p>

<p>Please re-post with some mud on it, I'm having a hard time seeing the bike clearly with all that glare.  </p>
