Wow, what a twist! That does explain though why there were never any updated pics.

OK so do I have this right...

The OP (who is not the owner of the bike):
1. posts a photo of the bike
2. gets savaged (justifiable) by us bike Nazi's cause the saddle is 2 mm too far forward in the clamp
3. gets upset and removes the photo and insult the forum
4. conscientious weenies dutifully recover the photo and repost
5. funny weeny posts photo in the freaks topic
6. all weenies laugh
7. actual owner of the bike shows up, very politely informs us of the strange deception. .

A strange twist indeed!!

Well, there is only one thing to do - trystan (actual owner) welcome to weightweenies and what the hell was with that saddle position?? I mean dude, what were you thinking?

I sent the picture to my son who posted it on one of his social media accounts, I assume that is where this person got the picture.

I am posting this in case the shop happens to see this thread I would be mortified if they thought this person is me.

This seems like a great community of cycling enthusiasts, hopefully this may quiet an antagonist.


Trystan you just dropped a bomb on this thread but care to post some follow up pics of the bike?

I did find it suspicious when the OP ignored my question on where he sourced his bike. This looks like it came from my local shop, R&A Cycles. Can you confirm?

I'm trying to wrap my head around the mentality of a guy who would get offended by criticism of a bike he's only pretending is his.

HA! I finally see the infamous RCA, the saddle ... well yeah needs to be fixed, but the headset spacers! If a guy cant slam that stem then at least align the logos of the headset spacers or just get plain carbon ones without logos.

Ok, I've had my fun. Nice watches by the way, but shave them arms.
