Lucero

Hold on to your aerobars because here we go! Strass' new full carbon Lucero is so incredibly light, so remarkably nimble, so well-crafted, that it will instantly take MY potential and make it a glorious reality (at least that is what the QR web site says it will do). Lucero is Spanish for a bright shining star - I hope that this bike (and its rider) lives up to its namesake. Corky and the boys at Ghisallo hooked me up with this awesome piece of machinery. You can expect an unbelievable change in my biking performance thanks to the multi-layered carbon fibers that are molded with a state of the art resin pregnation system that delivers a precise, unified structure for the ultimate in stiffness and lightweight performance. I don't know what any of that means other than it should be able to kick the sh*t out of the Taiwanese made Scott Plasma that Rosenthal is riding.
