The Cross Season has started in fine fashion!!!

IT ONLY GETS BETTER!

Do you remember this bike? The bike Lance is holding was used at the Indianapolis for the "Race to Replace". Look at what we have here in the store...

When you walk in you will see the actual bike that Lance Armstrong was holding at the "Race to Replace". As you can see Lance Armstrong has autographed the frame along with Indy car driver P.J. Chesson. How cool is that?

We will be raffling this bike at the end of the year. Each raffle ticket will cost $5 or 5 for $20. The more you buy the better your chance for winning. All proceeds from the raffle will go the LiveStrong Foundation.

Drawing for a Lance Armstrong Autographed Jersey

That's right, we have in our possession a Discovery Jersey signed by the man himself, Lance Armstrong. For a donation of $2 your name will be put in the jar. At the end of the month of October we will draw the winners name. It could be you. Your donation will go to the LiveStrong Foundation. Here is your chance to win a piece of history.

Happy BirthdaY Dan.

Store Co-Owner Dan Hansen celebrates his 29th birthday in style.

Finishing the Serotta Ottrott ST

Today we finished the Ottrott! Since the last post we ran all of the cables added a chain, pedals, saddle,and a computer. After making sure it shifted perfectly we wrapped the bars and pumped up the tires. Now all it needs is a rider!





Here's the details:
-Serotta Ottrott ST Frame
-Shimano Dura-Ace Group
-Ritchey WCS Carbon Bars and Seatpost
-Ritchey WCS 4-Axis Stem
-Bontrager Aeolus Wheels
-Fizik Aliante Saddle
-Shimano Flight Deck Computer

A new Serotta is born.

It's just like Christmas in the shop when the UPS man drops off the big brown boxes that contain the frame and parts to build up a new Serotta. Building a custom bike piece by piece is a labor of love so check it out as we build a new Serotta.







So that's it for today, We got quite a bit done but there's much to do to finish the bike. Check back tomorrow as we complete the bike and call our very excited customer. More photos and a few more details on the components. Just check out those wheels, Bontrager Aeolus 5.0 carbon clinchers. Light and fast! See ya tomorrow!

New Serotta hits the road!

This is the newest addition to the KC Serotta family. This is a Serotta Meivici built up with the new Sram Force group. Complimenting the Sram group is a Bontrager XXX Race Lite carbon wheelset, Bontrager XXX Race Lite carbon stem, and Bontrager XXX Race Lite Boron/carbon bars. As you can see it's light !
