Correction. It is pink argyle bar tape. I'll try and get a close-up tonight. I don't have a memory stick for my camera yet, so I can take about 5 pictures before it runs out of memory. That comes in the next few days.
GASP!! How dare you get even a tiny spec of dirt on a Madone!! Don't you realize that it's meant strictly for nice warm summer days and has to be walked over puddles rather than ridden??

Nice bikes man. Those Pauls look interesting. So you actually dial in the spring tension on the brake without using those hole thingies? Crazy. Have fun using the cross bike in bad weather and VERY NICE Madone in good weather.
That is actually pretty clean for my madone. With the hours I'm keeping and usually working about 6 days a week it doesn't really allow me to do some much need maintenance to my bikes. I'm tearing it down this week and probably rebuilding it so that I can actually regain some self respect.
The Pauls are kind of weird to do in with no screws the tension and centering is done by adjusting the springs. Hard to install, but they stop like mad.
It is a Newell tattoo. I got about 10 or so of them from Victory Circle Graphics a couple of years ago and they are on all my bikes. It's about as close to PAF as I'll ever get.

Dude - nice yellow bike! Is that a Newell tatoo on the top tube as well?
C'mon - Details, details, tell us more.

is that a custom paint job, too? And if so, how was it done?
