    In 1991, Winning magazine did an article on Davis Phinney's Serotta team bike. It was a gorgeous bike.

    Currently own and ride a Serotta Colorado LT. Stiffest bike I've ever owned. 22lbs. It hangs on the wall in the living room, like art.

      Great comment! But did you enjoy riding it?

      @@kamuelalee By stiff, I mean that the bottom bracket feels stiff, not that the bike is uncomfortably stiff - great set of forks. Also put a Brook's all leather saddle on it - super comfy! Thanks for asking.

      @@jthepickle7 Sounds like a great bike, tho a bit on the heavy side for a road bike.

      @@kamuelalee In 1984 there were very few carbon fiber frames out and titanium was too expensive for me, but all the guys I rode with had steel frames, just like mine.
      Gary, the creator of Clif Bars invited me to go on his annual ride, once around Yosemite. Four of us, with steel framed bikes, rode 100 miles a day for three consecutive days, sleeping in motels and carrying tiny packs. I was the only non-racer, the other three were Cat 2. But I had once ridden from Miami to Seattle and had done many back to back centuries. Me and my clunky Serotta kicked ass!

    I have one of Scott's Mercury racing bikes. It's the metallic gold color from around 2000. He sold the bike at Veloswap in Boulder. Would be willing to sell.
