Beautiful bike, Chuck. But that photo is uninspiring at best. Or does that bike really have black components instead of chrome and aluminum? You mentioned multi-million dollar equipment for the photo shoot... I guess they need a better photographer, or at least somebody with some experience photographing bicycles.

Investments: I often get questions from people who found my site requesting the value of an old junker they found in Aunt Agatha's attic, or whether some bike they plan to buy is a good investment, but unfortunately, I don't have an answer for them. I don't really care what bikes are worth... but I do care how they ride! -- Jan Heine, Seattle Editor/Publisher Vintage Bicycle Quarterly c/o Il Vecchio Bicycles 140 Lakeside Ave, Ste.
