Okay, guys since no definite answer was reached in the Who has the Hottest bike contest I say that we have a judged contest to finally determine who has the sweetest bike on ST. Lets see it !

{ Tom Demerly`s bike is excluded from this contest I WANT THIS TO BE FAIR! }

A bike with spacers and a positive rise stem cannot win the hottest bike contest...

plus having the chain in the small chainring when taking the picture should result in the immediate disqualification from the competition of "The Hottest Bike" :)

Okay Notes for everyone else posting:

Mount largest chainring you can find

Chain should be in Big/Small gearing, bonus points for 56/11 or better

Borrow friends Ergostem and slam it for the photo.

Photoshop out spacers

Blur background to make it go faster

I concur. There's nothing else that I've seen on this forum that can hang with that Lotus.

oh, and the most important point:

IF IT'S NOT AT LEAST 90% CARBON WITH CARBON WHEELS (NO CLINCHERS HERE) YOU HAVE NO CHANCE;)

I heard that on your last OD race you got beat by a guy half your size, riding a road bike with no aerobars. Is that true?

THAT WAS JUST A RUMOR, truth was that he was so short I never even saw the bastard and when I stopped to take a picture with these two Portuguese bikini babes watching the race (later found to be plants by some guy named "Sedi") he ran right by me. At least he was short though and didn't get in the picture:)

"no aerobars??????" please tell me you are joking, now I feel really pathetic, I'm going to have to take out some spacers till the pain in my back and neck erases those painful memories.

sweet cockpit!

What is the aero stream bottle holder made of? Looks like some sort of carbon/epoxy sheet?

Would you by any chance have a template so I can make on like it?

I have here a picture of Klep's bike, who beat you by a way larger margin... I'm afraid that if you see it, you might be severely depressed...

No, even though the chances of seeing that QR racing in the US next year are very good :-)

It's a pic of Sedi's bike... Sedi beat Tai at Worlds :-)

LOL!!!

Even though I barely use them, I actually rode aerobars in the W. But Klep didn't and he still beat me by 2min or so!!!

As SAC said, it's really not about the bike!! ;-)

BTW, how is you stomach?
