My new baby (bicycle love)

I'm getting this bike with my staff discount at work any day now... mmm... first I have to sell the bum entry level racer I've been riding and then I can put the money into this one. Riding this lovely thing will be a pleasure. Cross your fingers for me it won't get stolen!

Nice.

My bike just broke a couple days ago. The part the chain wraps around near the back tire got all fucked up.

I love to get baked and then go mountain biking out in the woods. :stoned:

The derailleur? Yeah, if you mountain bike that's one of the things that's almost guaranteed to get smashed into the spokes sooner or later. It's kind of vulnerable just hanging there waiting to be fallen on. One of the most expensive components and one of the most prone to breakage, especially on a MTB.

But hey! You can get a new one installed for maybe $50-60 depending on the quality and how much the shop charges for labour...?

A Jamis??  Damn, it's sexy!  How much are you spending on that?  Do you race or do you like to just ride a nice bike on the road?

I'm waaaay to cheap to spend that much on a bike.  I got a near mint 1983 Trek 520 a couple months ago for $100. 
It's the same age as me and is probably in better working condition :tongue:

people should design a thingy you put inside your bike (like inside the tubeeeee. things) that's like a tracking device, and that you can just be like "I've caught you now, you dirty scoundrel!" or if you forgot where you parked buhaha

It's a previous year's model (2006) so it's already at a pretty decent discount at $800 and then I get it for cost + 10% + shipping, so somewhere in the $400-500 range. I should be able to sell my current bike for about $400 so that'll pretty much pay for this one.

The Jamis is not actually that high end, it has mostly entry level components but they are all decent anyways, and they didn't cheap out anywhere. Everything on it is reasonable. My current bike has a nice rear derailleur and nice STI shifter/brake levers, but they shat out on the wheels so bad that it's a joke.

I don't race, but my bike is my primary form of transportation since I don't have a car or even a driver's license, so riding an efficient, fast decent quality bike makes a world of difference in my life. It's definitly a bonus that it's the sexiest thing ever, all matte black with carbon fibre forks and radial spoke pattern on the front wheel. I'm gonna love that bike like it was my boyfriend. :yesnod:
