the bike looks Oz-some! (almost as good as mine).
haha.
anyway, it looks great, ride it all the time, and remember to take care of it. It could last you a really loooong time!
(I think your bike would look really amazing if everything that wasn't black, was white. althoough the black, red, white thing  you have going is cool.)

have a great time riding your Oz!!

That's a very sharp looking carbon.  I especially like the how well the Noleen 32mm stanchions compliment the sturdy looking carbon tubing.  Keep us posted on your results, I really like how your first series has lap times for the riders, it's a nice feature I have not found here stateside.

yeah sure will [smiley=nod.gif],got to wait till september till my next series starts [smiley=doh.gif].
I like the lap features to, it gives a good idea on your opponents weakness/strengths, it also helps show me where I need to improve :P
