    Santa came early this year

    My new Ellsworth Evolve carbon finally showed up. Thanks to this new trend of mild winters I got the chance to get it out fir a ride yesterday. After riding my 34 pound fat bike for 6 or 7 weeks I felt like superman.

    I love it. Blue works with orange so well. Damn, the fatties have spikes now? You're all set for the season.

    yeah, my question as well... it is definitely top bling built, including light AC Race wheels - if I am not mistaken...

    looks awesome Johnny... may it bring you countless hours of pleasure...

    The weight of the Ellsworth is 22.75 lbs. He's given me the itch to start looking for a new bike but my wallet is telling me otherwise The pictures really don't do it justice, it's absolutely a beautiful bike

    Cool, I saw a bike just like that at Costco, it was crazy expensive, like $400.

    Wow, my Misfit only weighs a 1.5lb less than that, and it doesn't have gears or suspension.

    So...how does it ride?????
    Strava made me do it....

    I'm regretting my epic every day. Between this and the new BMC 4stroke 29.

    And here I thought you were poking fun at the roughly 20 or so Bike Zone stickers plastered all over the bike

    :) welcome to the dark side

    did it come with a life supply of cool-aid?

    22.75 is very impressive.

    22.75 is so impressive that it doesn't seem right.

    I'm willing to bet he could be on a 15 pound bike and you'd still hand him his ass.
