Pedal ID by Yamato has some really cool 1:9 scale model bicycle kits, and they offer everything you need to build up a replica of your own whip, like white tires, chains, deep aero wheels, stems and handle bars and saddles in every color of the rainbow.  They even have extremely detailed crank and pedal kits.  The downside?  The entire site is in Japanese.
