Check out the FGG, fixed gear gallery, #8833, Andrew Bishop's Cinelli Pista. http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/2009/jan/2/AndrewBishop.htm

It's got a white Brooks? Swallow. Find out from him where he got it.

Happy trails,

I haven't heard any comment on this, but in the latest issue of Cog Magazin e after a visit to the Brooks Factory Eric Von Munz=A0 writes that Brooks has new colors, including Deep Purple, Orange, Yellow and Electric Blue on the horizon.=A0 Some are pictured in the article.=A0 The yellow is pretty interesting to my eye.=A0 I just visited both the Wallbike and Brooks sites , however, and saw no mention of them.=A0 Has anyone heard of a time line for their release?
