Title: Team Carbent has changed its spots!
Post by aikigreg on Aug 11^th, 2009, 10:37pm

Blame for this falls squarely on the shoulders of one Adrienne Johnson, wife of my RAO team captain, who herself was Crew Chieftess for Sandy Earl. They have gone pink and convinced those others of us to do the same. They have nagge us relentlessly until capitulation was had. So we have specially designed Team Carbent seatbags coming, in Pink. my teammate Chris Young has already started with the changeover. I'm ging to need help finding pink accessories to keep up, y'all!

Here's Chris:

Oh, and just for giggles, I found one of my old pics, from my honeymoon. I think I'm sitting about 240 in this pic. All of it bum.

BentUp Cycles is the manufacturer and only distributor at the moment. It's my favorite of all the highracers so far.

Chris and I both ride Ravens. It's silly not to go ahead and go to 700c when you have the opportunity, since tire choice and wheel choice is so much nicer. Even at 700c, the Carbent sits lower than a corsa with Euromesh.

Oh, team "Pretty in Pink". Your team motto can be "we're in touch with our feminine side so should you."

I am not sure due to not being able to look at them except through peripheral vision but shouldn't shorts like that be really really short or something or you at least need to sport one of these with the team logo on the bow

Show them what for [smiley=huh.gif]

PS: I would love a bike frame painted pink with black spots or stripes now that would be awesome!

not yet - waiting for the pink bar tape to arrive first.
