2011 Giant TCR Advanced 2
it scares me how fast and lightweight these bikes can be - especially considering I regularly rode one of these monsters
Ultimately the TCR is stock as far as mechanics are concerned. I've added a set of profile design aero bars, NR light, red tail light (goofy but there's nothing cool about getting splattered on the road) and a CatEye wireless computer.
The fizik seat I switched out to some thing less aggressive but I think it'll still be another few years before I'll be able to have kids. (It is for sale btw if you hate your reproductive organs but want to go that much faster)

Reminds me of when I was 12 (?) and got a Mongoose XR-75
That seat. WHY. IT'S A RAIL. WHY WOULD YOU PUT THAT ON A SOFT-TAIL MOUNTAIN BIKE?!
I still ride it, but now it has the wheels, handlebars/headstock, and seat from an old 90s Magna, a taller seat post, and new slightly more durable front derailleur.

"it's been ergonomically designed for maximum comfort and efficiency!" Apparently the designers are Ken dolls

That's a full suspension, not a soft-tail frame. A soft-tail has rigid mounting chainstays with a damper on the seatstays.
