Posting this just 'COS I CAN.

Rossin Aero Pursuit Pista

@ 48x17 Cycles, Athens Greece.

F*CK PREMIUM RUSH. Because ...

... COURIER CRISIS is the real O.G. 'ish.

And of course there will soon be some lame Premium Rush game in the shops.

Bicycle Messengers of San Francisco 1995

Awesome photo gallery from Richard Todd, w/ lots more photos HERE.

These photos are apparently all from 1995 and if that is true, especially the guy above was so much ahead of his time that it just blows my mind, or maybe this just proves that everything goes around in circles.

Ain't nothin to it

I stole this from 2Fresh.

Selle Flite Boxed

Just came across these nice pics of a boxed original 1990s classic Selle Flite TI. I myself got Flites in all my bikes at the moment. And no, I don't ride reissues.

(Pics snatched from here.)

Way Back In '94: DOUBLE RUSH !!!

Thanks to Paulus for the heads-up on this. Looks kinda funky in the 1990s way but hey, in the titles part there's someone riding a track bike with Mavic Pursuit bars on it.

Cinelli Titanium Grammo

Here's yet another incredibly nice and expensive Ebay find. (Probably quite) rare colored Cinelli Ti Grammo quill stem, HERE.

Vitus ZX1

Did I just say something about geared retro road bikes being the next thing? Post-fixie Hipster road cycling, anyone?

If you're feeling me on this issue, here's something you just need to check out: a rare 1994 Vitus ZX1 Aero Carbon road bike on Ebay. All Campagnolo'd out and with double 'spoks. Hot 'ish. Even if I start sounding bit too much like AlanWMD, I'm like, whoah, my head is exploding, dude!

You can go bidding crazy HERE.

Gnarly Welds

A detail of Mika's new frame. Congratulations, dude.

'Gamagoolo'

Yeah, what? Apparently the time trial Benotto below is equipped with some 'Gamagoolo' parts...

Back In The Day

H+Son Track Frame

Everyone and their mother knows about this already but this is what the H Plus Son alu Track frame will eventually look like, with a traditional flat crown steel fork.

The last pic below is what should be the final version which will be supposedly eventually produced in 53/55/57cm sizes. And yes, the geo is real close to the original Cannondale 1992 Track 1000. But no final word on the price yet, though, except that with the welds smooth like those it's not going to be 'cheap'.
