Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Amazing. More info?

Also @Aches any more info on that small wheel beastie?

Really missing this thread after a couple of weeks. Lets get the ball rolling again, not sure if this has been here yet.

Mine; apologies for the poor pic.

Needs mudguards, bagman support for my carradice and a compact crankset. Toured last summer on her, very comfy and capable of being nippy when needed.

Spa Cycles have some nice selection of compact crankset, would recommend the 46/34 option.

Cheers ed, though I already have one on standby from on-one, that doesn't fit the chorus bb thats currently fitted due to crank clearance to the shell...

What size is your Carradice?
I would just use your rack (if it's not too high) to support the bag - I assume it's the transverse style?

The rack is actually too low to support it, and its a pendle. Its one of those irritating things that niggles, and I hate the way it dangles without support. Ugh.

thread lives!

Repost I know,

But does anyone know where/how you can buy this complete all-city bike?

No point when you can get the Genesis instead.

Frameset is £599.

Day One Disc is only £150 more with great spec.

Ed,

I know, but somehow the All-city looks rather nicer than then genesis and more exclusive in my eyes,

Granted the genesis is a lot cheaper to get the complete bike, especially from here:

Ho still not grasping the concept of a beater

Day One Disc is only £50 more! 649.99.

I came here to say the same

Thanks! =)

The Nature Boy Disc will probably be closer to £450, by the time it's available online.

Wrong thread to point this out, but the Genesis is fugly ;-)

Am I doing it wrong?

This is why I couldn't commit,

I hate architectural side of me, form over function.

Exactly...oh some of the visionary people in the 1970's hey?

it was great when people were allowed to actually live there

Slap some cheapo chinese carbon disc forks on the day one will improve it no end without making it horribly expensive
