This bike fits thank you very much - put more mileage on it than the TCR!

Let us see you sitting on it ..

#internetbikefit

well for starters dick you seem to be missing a smp saddle

I haz POWER SADDLEZ

SMP looks like bum rape

I don't like bum rape

Looking good, glad you kept this one :)

That bar / stem combo.

This thing rides phenomenally well now its got some decent wheels

What is good about the wheels? Lighter/more responsive? Nicer tires?

(Oh, and dibs for when you decide to sell next week 😋)

Ha - @umop3pisdn has beaten you to it there!

I always found the aksiums very 'soggy'. The Zipps aren't that much lighter, but feel a lot more responsive, stiff and reassuringly wide. The smaller, better tyres help aswell, I don't think that 30mm Strada Bianca are a good choice for a predominantly road orientated bike - I felt like I could never get them up to pressure, that they were always spongy under duress and compounded the unresponsiveness and general lack of stiffness in the wheels.

Don't get me wrong - they were both super super comfy, just found a noticeable difference keeping up on club runs.

Do need to do something about the bloody branding though - anyone got experience with removing these off a 30 Course wheelset? They're printed on, not decals :(

Ah yeah, makes sense. I'm definitely thinking the plan with mine is to have one set with 32c gravel kings and one set with 25 mm pro ones

spends zipp money for decals and then tries to remove.jpg

This behaviour is all a facade for your entry into #EC1collective isnt it? It all started with that Rourke ..

That Rourke was bourne out of my inability to not click "Buy"

As is these Zipps

Wait are those alu zipps? Povvo >>>>

Wait, is that an Evans own brand?.......

I don't quite have your buyeur reputation...

It's ok - I haz Boardman

You wanna remove Zipp decals??

Caad10 for sale over there ;)

Here's my CAAD 12. It's kind of replacing the Supersix HM I wrote off racing in June (actually written off by the fucknuts who couldn't manage a simple corner resulting in him crashing front of me, leading to an acrobatic 40kph flip on my part).

I will be getting a blingy new crabon bike at some point but this will be my race/training bike. It's very pretty but the bottom bracket creaking has been an absolute nightmare from the start. Having picked it up again yesterday from the bike shop it seems to have been fixed but I'll put in a few more mile before confirming.

It really feels built for racing so looking forward to properly putting it through its paces!

reckon I could earn good money as the BB30Fixr or something

The BB Whisperer. Get that trademarked.

That was my first thought but it sounded a bit too familiar.
