r_mash in reply to @amey

that's a lot of £££ for a bottle cage!
• #154

amey in reply to @r_mash

£10.99

Not bad for SS
• #155

Turkish in reply to @r_mash

Yes those. Lighter than some £100+ cages. If it breaks just order another one for less than a tenner

I use them, for the money, can't grumble.

Another +1 for the eBay bontrager cages. Between me and housemates there's 6 of them in our house. One doesn't like holding bottles but the other 5 have been sweet for many miles of gripping beverages.

You've opened a real can of worms here....

The Ritchey road logic/coloured bar tape scene is not a pretty one...

black.

my one complaint is that they all end up looking a bit samesies. let me see if I can find those other hideous ritcheys...

white looks better but is high maintenance, just go with black for simplicity. And Stainless Steel cages.

r_mash

It being the work day and me having lots of work to do I can't find them at the moment.

But LFGSS challenge - find a pretty road logic with non-white/black bar tape.

Go.

(note: my gut says this is impossible)

White bar tape always looks best

Thrasher

You going to repaint? Stock logic paint is gank
• #169

r_mash in reply to @Thrasher

I dunno. I might ride it for awhile and then strip and do a repaint. Would love to recreate that old ritchey....decals from ebay etc.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: camo bar tape would work on one of these.

evidence?!

Said no-one, ever.

Camo bar tape doesn't work on anything.

r_mash in reply to @andyp

cue jokes about not being able to find your bike. cause you know, it's camoflaged...
• #174

Thrasher in reply to @the_meat

I'd ban you if I could.
• #175

the_meat

lol, I stand by it. Ritchey's have had camo paint jobs forever, and simple paint jobs like boring ol' grey mean you can get away with weirder tape atmo

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
