The traditional ST/DT panel design looks better on a steel frame IMO. Looks odd on fat carbon tubes.

oh dear scattante, what is your front QR doing?

is it just me, or does having slang words for poop and the skin between your ballsack and your anus in large letters on your downtube just not appealing?

scat = poo
taint = the skin between the back of the ballsack and the anus.

@micky, you beat me to it. The Ridley does seem to be a ripoff of the Saronni Master, rainbow stripes and all.

Ah right, didn't make the connection there based on the spelling. Normally my head is in the gutter 99% of the time so don't know how I didn't get that. We (New Zealand) don't refer to that area of the body as the taint, we normally call it by it's real name (perinium), or in my case by the body piercing terminology of guiche.

Also referred to as gooch.
Call me old fashioned, but...
I'm not riding a gooch or guiche.

In other news, I'm looking forward to the Tour of Utah and USA Pro Challenge. It's great to see pro's ride in your own backyard - and on the same roads you ride. Unsurprisingly, they're kinda fast!
