They do indeed exist, and look KILLER in person. _________________ Blacksmith Cycle - bespoke bicycles - info@blacksmithcycle.com Website: http://www.blacksmithcycle.com Stage-Race Distribution - the world's finest bicycles Website: http://www.stage-race.com

Interesting bike, I've seen a few Musseuw bikes on the road here in Belgium, but not this one. Apparently they do this to create a smaller rear 'bridge'. Maybe marketing lingo.. lots of frames nowadays with thin seatstays.

There would be little indication that they've tapped/feathered their brakes at all. Although that is not at all the primary thing a person should be watching while riding a wheel, it is something to take note of in the periphery. But this... can't see no brakes on them (from behind) _________________ Exp001

This is a nice looking bike, btw _________________ CAAD 10 http://weightweenies.starbike.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=119755&hilit=caad+10+force+22

Prendrefeu has a good point there because I catch myself often checking the brake move of the guy in front when riding in a group line. _________________ Kuota Kom Evo viewtopic.php?f=10&t=111825&p=955235#p955235" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
