Bought my dream Bike

Litespeed Vortex, custom yellow stripe fizik airone saddle, dura ace 10 (obvi). Rides like a rocketship, and with the free wheel deal, and trading in my trek 5500 (which didnt fit well), got it at a good price too. more reactive, comfortable, stiff, and lighter than any other bike ive riden. ok, ive riden lighter, but not as stiff.

Sweet ride man. You going to ride it for road or tri? Very nice. Pictures?

Pictures, pictures, pictures.

"I need to borrow a digital camera for the pics "

You can afford $$$$ for a beautiful bike like that but not $29.95 for a WalMart digital camera for internet photos!! :slight_smile:

Very Nice, what did it cost for the upgrade after the trade?

I was thinking of doing something along the same lines, I have a 59cm (03?)Tuscany(the one with black lettering) with Dura Ace 9spd, Ksyrium SSL(the black ones) Wheels and was thinking of trading up to a Vortex, maybe a 57cm. I think they are the same Geometry in the same sizes. It might be my last big purchase for years.

Herbert- Any insight into what i would expect in the change as far as ride / BB stiffness / Head tube stiffness. I would be using it for Road Racing/Riding. I have another Tri bike.

Any opinions anyone?
