December Bike Of The Month

[cherrybomb]

My vote gotes to the Cannondale....for the Brookes saddle.

the klunker has a B72 (dated 1975 no less!!)...or is it the color of that B17 that gets ya?

I just think a brown leather Brookes can look about as cool as it gets on some bikes.
I have a B17 planned for the Karakoram once it's resprayed.

has a bontrager ever won BOTM?

and i like that Roberts cause its steel, looks like its brazed, and has a proper retro build. ymmv

Hey Hollister - I don't remember a Bontrager winning BOTM. Strange becuase there are some sweet examples on here (and their fans geographic spread extends beyond California too ).

Thanks for your comments re the Roberts. It is fillet-brazed. A mixture of Columbus Max-OR, Nivacrom and Reynolds 753 tubes. The fork is a Reynolds 531/753 combo. It rides great too - I hammered it twice last weekend!

i catch more flack from the guys here in NorCal about my bontrager addiction than from anyone else.. (you know who you are)

Bontragers suck.

two Slingshots in one BOTM competition - that has to be a first?

Still - not British though are they

I've had a couple Slingshots with a UK build...does that count?

Congrats to you all.

You're right dude, you're right. If I could only find a silver Thermos for mine, then I'd stand a chance.
